– The adjustments we have implemented have had an effect, and we continue to see a strong demand for travel to, from and in Greenland. But we are not there yet, he says and continues:
– When irregularities occur in traffic, the conditions under which we operate continue to put considerable pressure on passenger and freight handling. Limited hotel capacity, especially in the central hubs, and increasing traffic place great demands on both planning and customer communication. Therefore, we continue to work purposefully to strengthen customer handling when traffic is affected. At the same time, I would like to thank our employees for their extraordinary efforts during a period of great pressure on the organisation.
