Airport Key Facts

Flying Privately to Qeqertaq

Travelling by private helicopter charter to Qeqertaq removes the considerable logistical challenges that face commercial travellers attempting to reach this remote Arctic settlement. With no fixed-wing runway at QQT, private helicopter charter is the most direct and exclusive means of arrival, offering point-to-point flexibility that scheduled services simply cannot match. Passengers benefit from bespoke scheduling around weather windows, which is especially valuable in Greenland’s changeable Arctic climate. Prime Jet Services coordinates seamless connections from larger regional airports such as Ilulissat (JAV) to Qeqertaq Heliport, ensuring a smooth and private end-to-end journey.

About Qeqertaq Heliport Airport

Qeqertaq Heliport (IATA: QQT) is a compact domestic facility serving the small settlement of Qeqertaq on Disko Island, operated under the auspices of Greenland’s national infrastructure framework. As a heliport rather than a conventional airport, QQT accommodates rotary-wing aircraft only, making helicopter charter the exclusive mode of private aviation access to the area. The facility is modest in its physical infrastructure, reflecting the settlement’s population of fewer than 100 residents, but it fulfils a vital transport role in one of the world’s most sparsely connected regions. Immigration and customs formalities for arrivals into Greenland are typically handled at the primary point of entry — usually Kangerlussuaq (SFJ) or Ilulissat (JAV) — before onward helicopter transfer to QQT. The heliport’s remote Arctic setting and its role as a stepping stone to Disko Island’s wilderness make it a genuinely unique point of arrival in the private aviation world.
