Frozen foods

We recommend that our passengers send deep-frozen goods as air cargo in order to prevent the consignment from being damaged en route.

As an exception, deep-frozen foodstuffs can be accepted in the hold in accordance with the following guidelines if the total journey time does not exceed eight hours:

  • Transport takes place at your own risk and in a separate bag labeled ‘deep-frozen foodstuffs’.
  • Foodstuffs must be packaged in plastic or other waterproof material in the separate bag.
  • Make an arrangement with the personnel at check-in that the frozen goods can be kept in a freezer until shortly before departure.
  • If possible, the goods should be stowed in an unheated hold. 

Restrictions

Passengers that wish to transport meat between Denmark and Greenland must obtain information concerning current rules and regulations from: 

Ministry of Fishing, Hunting and Agriculture 
Veterinary Office in Nuuk 
Postboks 269 
3900 Nuuk

Read the Government of Greenland’s "Rules concerning the import of animal foodstuffs from Greenland to Denmark by private individuals" »

Air Greenland cannot be held liable if passengers contravene applicable rules.
