Search flights from CPH to BRS
Great Belt Bridge
One of the world's longest suspension bridges connecting the Danish islands of Zealand and Funen.
North Norfolk Coast
The point of entry into UK airspace featuring wide sandy beaches and coastal nature reserves.
The Cotswolds
Rolling green hills and honey-colored stone villages characteristic of the English countryside.
Severn Bridges
The iconic M4 and M48 bridges spanning the Severn Estuary as you approach Bristol Airport.
Severn Bore
The wide, muddy waters of the estuary which often show a dramatic tidal range from above.
This is the premier side for the approach into Bristol. Ensure your window is clear for the descent over the Severn Estuary, as the view of the suspension bridges is one of the most scenic airport approaches in the UK. Morning flights provide the best lighting for these features.

Danish Archipelago
Aerial views of the southern islands of Møn, Falster, and Lolland shortly after departure.
Frisian Islands
The unique chain of islands and tidal flats stretching along the Dutch and German coastlines.
London Skyline
On clear days, the distant skyscrapers of the City and Canary Wharf are visible to the south.
Stonehenge
If the flight path tracks south of the Cotswolds, the prehistoric monument can sometimes be spotted in Wiltshire.
Choose this side for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. Keep a sharp eye out for the distinctive circular shape of Stonehenge during the descent phase if the pilot takes a southern approach vector.
