The final Sunday Short Haul of the year will involve a different approach to flying seldom necessary when operating around Europe. At Nuuk, diversion options may be limited, the weather can be interesting to say the least and for many it will be a new destination to plot on the map.

The year of 2026 it is almost over and Christmas and New Year are just around the corner. The lull in between Christmas and New Year (if you are not working!) can sometimes be a bit of a strange time, no-man’s land, where the days of the week somehow slip out of our minds. We want to say “thank you” for your membership and ensure you are fully equipped to keep yourself busy if your plans to visit friends and family don’t come together after all – or give you an excuse to seek the solitude of a bit of peace and quiet.
