Airlines and destinations

Air Greenland operates government contract flights to villages in the Upernavik area. These mostly cargo flights are not featured in the timetable,[2] although they can be pre-booked.[3] Departure times for these flights as specified during booking are by definition approximate, with the settlement service optimized on the fly depending on local demand for a given day.

Accidents

In 1993 a Bell 212 helicopter operated by Grønlandsfly, crashed near Innarsuit. Four killed (both pilots and two passengers) of seven on board.[4] [5]
