Nuuk Airport

Nuuk Airport is an airport serving Nuuk, the capital of Greenland. The airport is a technical base and focus city for Air Greenland, the flag carrier airline of Greenland, linking the capital with almost all towns in the country, including the airline's international hub at Kangerlussuaq Airport, providing most onward international connections. Nuuk Airport is one of six designated international airports in Greenland but mostly serves domestic destinations, however it is served by limited international service to Iceland and Canada.

The airport was constructed in 1979 to serve the capital and largest town in Greenland, with STOL-capable aircraft with a 950m runway. As a result of its short runway located in mountainous terrain and frequent weather disruptions, it is currently unable to service large airliners.
