Kuummiit Heliport (IATA: KUZ, ICAO: BGKM) is a heliport in Kuummiit (Kuummiut in west Greenlandic), a village in the Sermersooq municipality in southeastern Greenland. The heliport is considered a helistop, and is served by Air Greenland as part of a government contract.
Air Greenland operates government contract flights to villages in the Tasiilaq area. These mostly cargo flights are not featured in the timetable, although they can be pre-booked. Departure times for these flights as specified during booking are by definition approximate, with the settlement service optimized on the fly depending on local demand for a given day.
