How to Find Cheap Flights to Copenhagen

Proven Strategies

Fly Budget Carriers: Norwegian, Ryanair, easyJet, Wizz Air, SAS Go Light (hand baggage only). Fly into CPH (main) or nearby Malmö (MMX, 20 min train).
Be Flexible: Midweek (Tue/Wed) cheaper. Off-peak: Jan–Mar, Oct–Nov. Avoid July, Dec, Easter.
Use Comparison Tools: Google Flights (calendar view, price tracking), Skyscanner, Kayak, Momondo. Set alerts.
Consider Nearby Airports: Billund (BLL, 2.5h train), Aarhus (AAR), Gothenburg (GOT, 3.5h train) — sometimes cheaper.
Book 2–3 Months Ahead for short-haul; 4–6 months for long-haul.
Airline Newsletters: SAS, Norwegian, Ryanair flash sales.
Hidden City / Multi-City: Sometimes CPH as stopover is cheaper than destination (risk: bags, IRROPS).
Points/Miles: Star Alliance (SAS, United, Lufthansa), oneworld (BA, Finnair), SkyTeam (KLM, Delta).

Budget fares: strict baggage, no changes, remote gates, secondary airports. Read terms.
