Immaqa means maybe in Greenlandic. This often used in Greenland as the weather can change very quickly
The guest’s security will always come before anything else and that means that sometimes our suppliers in Greenland change the itinerary due to bad weather. Sometimes weather causes that flights are not leaving ground or simply delayed.
