Blue Sky Network, announced that its fleet management portal, New SkyRouter, has been selected by Air Greenland, a helicopter and fixed wing operator in the Arctic. New SkyRouter is a feature-rich, cloud-based solution that enables constant connectivity with mobile assets dispersed in remote locations. Combined with Blue Sky Network’s Iridium Satellite-based products, New SkyRouter provides Air Greenland constant connectivity and coverage in the northern-most latitudes.

Air Greenland’s Charter department specializes in Arctic aviation, mineral exploration, and offshore search and rescue missions. Its aircraft and helicopters fly in secluded areas where communication is difficult, and sometimes even impossible. With New SkyRouter and Blue Sky Network’s Iridium Satellite based products, Air Greenland fleets will benefit from a reliable communication and fleet management solution that includes advanced tracking technologies and pole-to-pole connectivity with assets across the globe – features not attainable through other satellite networks.

“We have over 50 years of experience flying in the harsh Arctic climates and our flights frequently venture into extremely isolated locations where communication is spotty or virtually non-existent,” said Hans Peter Hansen, charter manager at Air Greenland. “Blue Sky Network’s New SkyRouter combined with their variety of product offerings provides us something others simply cannot – constant fleet connectivity. Given our flight routes to some of the most distant northern areas, we need the most reliable solution available; Blue Sky Network and Iridium make that possible.”
