Air Greenland to Nuuk looks to be returning to Copenhagen.
Flight GL781 from Copenhagen to Nuuk has turned around over Greenland.
The Airbus A330-800 (registration OY-GKN) departed Copenhagen Thursday, January 2 2025 to Nuuk but turned around instead to land 5 hours into the flight.
The aircraft turned around and is diverting back to Denmark possibly due to strong wind.
The wind is gusting up to 54 kt making any landing impossible.
About the same situation occurred on Saturday, December 7 2024 but the flight didn’t even reach Iceland before returning.
The flight looks to be on the same path and returning to CPH Airport, which would make a 10-hour flight to nowhere.
