There are no commercial or public taxi services. An on-base taxi service is available for authorized personnel for transport between the airfield, lodging, and work sites. This service is for official use and must be arranged through base channels.
Commercial car rental agencies do not operate at Pituffik Space Base. Vehicle transportation is handled via government-owned vehicles for official duties or the on-base shuttle system. There are no car rental options for visitors.
There is no public transit system connecting the base to other locations in Greenland. The base operates its own free shuttle bus system for authorized personnel, which runs on scheduled routes connecting key facilities like the airfield, dormitories, and work centers.
Note that the runway designations end in "T" because they're based on true rather than magnetic headings; that's standard for airports in the high Arctic.
This is a U.S. military base, operated within NATO under the 1951 Greenland Defense Agreement.
