Dec 14, 2020 (newstodate): Canadian North and Air Greenland will explore partnership opportunities for air services and tourism development between Greenland and Canada.
The two parties signed a LoI already in January 2020; but the announcement came only on December 9, 2020, as the two partners were engulfed by the growing challenges as the coronavirus pandemic gained pace.
-Now that there is a vaccine in distribution, it’s time to start looking ahead to partnering on flights through Ottawa-Iqaluit-Nuuk and Ottawa-Iqaluit-Ilulissat. We would also like to connect Greenland directly with southern Canada, possibly via Toronto during the tourism season, which includes March, April and August to October, says Canadian North Executive Chairman Johnny N. Adams in an interview with a Canadian media.
In 2021, Canadian North will add two Boeing 737-700 aircraft to the fleet boosting the capacity to fly from Toronto non-stop to Nuuk or Ilulissat.
