How to get the best deal on a Edinburgh — Nuuk ticket

  • Use the low-price calendar on this page to compare flight costs for different days of the week — departures on Tuesdays and Wednesdays are often cheaper than on weekends.
  • Carefully check baggage allowances when booking, as weight requirements can be very strict on the small aircraft serving the internal legs of the journey to Nuuk.
  • Consider options with a layover in Iceland (Keflavik Airport) — this is one of the most reliable and popular ways to reach Greenland with minimal waiting time.
