Your journey from Sisimiut to Copenhagen
From Sisimiut Airport (JHS)
Air Greenland departs from Sisimiut Airport, located close to the town centre. We recommend being at the airport at least 90 minutes before departure. Check-in opens 2 hours before departure and closes 45 minutes before.
Connecting in Nuuk (GOH)
Your journey connects through Nuuk Airport, Greenland’s main international gateway, which opened its new 2,200-metre runway in November 2024. Connection times are coordinated with the transatlantic departure to Copenhagen, and in most cases you stay airside – your baggage is checked all the way through to CPH.
Arriving in Copenhagen Airport (Kastrup) (CPH)
Flights from Nuuk land at Terminal 2 of Copenhagen Airport (Kastrup), with easy onward connections by train, metro, or to other European and international destinations.
When is it cheapest?
The lowest fares are typically found in the low season from October to March. Book at least 60 days before departure for the best price, and note that connections during the June–August high season should be booked well in advance as demand is high.
- Low season (Oct–Mar): lowest fares of the year
- Shoulder season (Apr–May, Sep): moderate fares
- High season (Jun–Aug): highest demand, book early
In the event of weather-related changes
Greenlandic weather can affect both the domestic and the transatlantic leg of your journey. In the event of a weather cancellation or missed connection, we rebook you free of charge to the next available departure and contact you automatically by SMS and email. We recommend a flexible fare type if you are travelling in the winter season.
