Can I make a 1 hour connection at CPH on an international flight?
1 hour clears the 45-minute international minimum connection time at Kastrup, but you should still head directly to your gate. CPH has no inter-terminal train or bus — Terminals 2 and 3 are connected airside via a network of piers and moving walkways. Passengers transferring between a Schengen flight and a non-Schengen flight must pass through a passport/security check, which is the main added step; pure Schengen-to-Schengen or domestic transfers stay entirely within the same secure zone.
How much time do I need for a layover at CPH?
We recommend at least 40 minutes for a comfortable connection at Kastrup. This gives you enough buffer for security (typically 12 minutes) and transit between terminals (up to 20 minutes).
What happens if I miss my connection at CPH?
SAS operates a dedicated transfer/rebooking desk in the Kastrup transfer area for missed connections on SAS and partner tickets; other airlines should head to their respective check-in or ground handling counter in Terminal 2 or 3 for rebooking.
