ABZ â CPH

Search flights from ABZ to CPH
Jutland Peninsula
The first sight of land after the North Sea crossing, featuring sandy dunes and extensive wind farms.
Garden of Denmark
The vibrant, patchwork fields of Funen, known for its rich agricultural beauty and charming villages.
Great Belt Bridge
An incredible top-down view of the 18km link between the islands of Funen and Zealand, one of the world's longest bridges.
Oresund Bridge
The iconic bridge-tunnel system connecting Denmark and Sweden, visible just before touchdown at CPH.
The right side is superior for engineering enthusiasts wanting to see Denmark's massive bridge infrastructure. For the best photography of the Great Belt Bridge, mid-morning flights offer the most favorable lighting. Be prepared for a sharp turn over the Baltic Sea which often puts the Oresund Bridge directly in view for right-side passengers.

Aberdeenshire Coast
Aerial views of the rugged Scottish coastline and the North Sea transition shortly after takeoff.
North Sea Oil Fields
On clear days, spot offshore platforms and support vessels dotting the maritime horizon.
Limfjord
The intricate network of waterways and islands cutting through the northern part of the Jutland peninsula.
Copenhagen Cityscape
A panoramic view of the Danish capital's historic spires and modern architecture during the final approach.
Sit on the left for evening flights to avoid the direct glare of the southern sun. During winter months, this side offers better chances to see the twilight glow over the North Sea. Keep an eye out for the 'Danish Riviera' along the northern coast of Zealand as the plane begins its descent into Kastrup.
