Why is it so hard to get to Greenland?
Why is it so hard to get to Greenland? The world's largest island is easy to get to, but there are limited options to get you there. There are no bridges, tunnels, or ferries that connect it with other countries, so you must fly. In particular, you must fly from either Denmark or Iceland.
Why are there no flights to Greenland?
There are no other direct flights to Greenland than from the Icelandic capitol, Reykjavik, because the runway in Nuuk is not long enough for bigger planes to land. Work to extend the runways in Nuuk and Ilulissat is being carried out, to accommodate larger aircrafts in the future.
Why is Greenland so special?
Greenland's spectacular coastline offers some of the most remarkable nature experiences. The Arctic landscape is dominated by ice-filled fjords, majestic peaks and vast tundra.
