Ilulissat International Airport Opens, Expanding Connections to North Greenland
Ilulissat International Airport opened on 29th October 2026, completing Greenland’s programme of three new airports after the openings of Nuuk in November 2024 and Qaqortoq in April 2026. For Ilulissat, Greenland’s third-largest city and a hub for Disko Bay and North Greenland, the new airport changes how the region can be reached from abroad, allowing larger passenger aircraft and direct international connections.
