Latest airport reviews
Going though customs was very fast, then it took over an hour to get our luggage. Mobs of people with crying kids (can’t blame them) after long flights waiting endlessly for luggage. Very disorganized luggage system.
Copenhagen airport is a good place to travel. Also a good place to start a trip to Sweden: the train crossing the bridge starts there. It's quick to head out to the city.
