Search flights from BSL to CPH
Black Forest
Densely forested mountain range in southwestern Germany, appearing immediately after takeoff.
Frankfurt Skyline
Clear views of 'Mainhattan' skyscrapers and one of Europe's busiest aviation hubs as you cross central Germany.
Port of Hamburg
The vast industrial docks and the Elbe river winding through Germany's second-largest city.
Øresund Bridge
The spectacular road and rail link between Copenhagen and Malmö, Sweden, usually visible during final approach.
Offshore Wind Farms
Massive arrays of wind turbines standing in the Baltic Sea waters as you enter Danish airspace.
Sit on the right for the iconic approach into Copenhagen. If the aircraft lands from the east (Runway 22), you will get a perfect view of the Øresund Bridge and the Swedish city of Malmö. Morning flights offer the best lighting for this side, illuminating the German landscape and the Baltic coast beautifully.

Vosges Mountains
Rising sharply to the west of the Rhine, these rounded peaks are visible shortly after departure from Basel.
Alsatian Vineyards
The patchwork of world-famous wine regions stretching along the eastern slopes of the Vosges.
Wadden Sea
If the flight path trends west, you will see the unique tidal flats and barrier islands of the German coast.
Great Belt Bridge
The massive suspension bridge connecting the Danish islands of Funen and Zealand during the descent.
The left side is preferable for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the setting sun. Keep your camera ready about 15 minutes before landing to catch the intricate coastline of the Danish archipelago. Look for the distinctive white cliffs of Møn if the route passes slightly south of the direct path.
