About Tasiusaq Heliport
Tasiusaq Heliport is a small helicopter landing site serving the settlement of Tasiusaq in the Upernavik Archipelago, in northwestern Greenland's Avannaata municipality. It is classed as a helistop and is used mainly for Air Greenland settlement flights operated under a government contract.
The heliport lies within the settlement on the island of Tasiusaq, about 71 km north of Upernavik. Scheduled helicopter services connect Tasiusaq with Upernavik Airport (JUV) and the neighbouring settlement of Innaarsuit, linking the village to regional and onward air services.
Because it is a helistop, the facility has no dedicated passenger terminal building; arriving and departing passengers are handled directly at the helipad. The settlement itself provides basic services for residents and visitors.
There are no road connections between settlements in the archipelago, so travel from Tasiusaq is generally by helicopter or boat, depending on weather and ice conditions. For most passengers, the heliport is a convenient local gateway to the Upernavik district.
