I recently flew on Air Greenland's newest aircraft to experience its "Premium" cabin with snowy landscapes and friendly Danish hospitality.
Air Greenland is owned by the Greenlandic government, but realistically it's a heavily Danish-influenced airline with mostly European executives. The airline has played a pivotal role in connecting the vast and unpredictable landscapes of Greenland for decades as the autonomous territory of Denmark has no roads outside of town limits. Aviation serves as a lifeline for remote communities, especially those without access to harbors. SAS and a Danish mining company founded the airline as Grønlandsfly in 1960.
The A330-800neo has been a slow seller as only 7 have been built so far. But the shortened widebody fits Air Greenland's future plans to connect the capital city Nuuk's short-runway and Copenhagen while being stuffed with cargo. It replaced the airline's previous jet (an old A330-200 nicknamed Norsaq). Passenger comfort was decreased in the new high-density jet, and the quality in Premium class also decreased poorly. I was disappointed in the undercooked food, lack of hot towels, and reduced personal touch (even though prices were increased 2x).

Yes, I agree with you about the chicken with that meal!! It looked like it needed more time to cook in the oven but oh well!! You shared that you were a little hungry. Finally, when you settled down in your hotel room you showed your luggage and back pack with you travel tags!! That was very nice to see your travels!!@ You made smile and 😂 laugh. You made me remember having lived out of my luggage for ten years of flying that it was nice to see the world!! Again, thank you for sharing your travels. Smile ☺

Shocked at how, for $1000, they offer that as a business cabin. In my mind it'd make more sense to make the business cabin smaller but to invest in higher quality and bigger seats for the people that want the business experience and sell more economy/premium economy seats instead of selling 4 seats in a pretty big but disappointing business cabin. Great video!

Great flight. Unfortunately unlike the 900 variant, the 800 variant can't attract more airline to use it. The cabin feels like Premium Economy rather than Business Class to be honest.

Great report. The only saving grace is you got an empty seat next to you. Not like Air Greenland needs to offer direct aisle access on their planes cause it’s only a 4-5 hour flight , but going backwards by offering an inferior 2-3-2 in their premium section is an utter disgrace. At least if I do go to Greenland i would just stick to economy.
