text: # Moriusaq Heliport
  
  Moriusaq Heliport (ICAO: BGMO) is a heliport in Moriusaq, a village in Avannaata municipality in northern Greenland. The heliport is considered a helistop, and is served by Air Greenland as part of a government contract. The village population had dwindled to 2 by 2010, and thus operations at the heliport are likely to be discontinued at any time.
