Copenhagen’s security is centralised and usually efficient, but at the morning peak, school holidays and the summer rush, queues can build. A little planning (the right lane, a lounge, and a car that drops you at the right door) turns departure into the calm part of the trip.
Fast track security at CPH
- Who gets it: business and first-class passengers and elite frequent flyers on many airlines, as shown on your boarding pass. Some fares and memberships include it; others don’t.
- Buying access: availability of paid fast-track access changes. Check the official CPH website before you travel.
- New scanners: CPH has been introducing CT scanners, which allow laptops and liquids to stay in bags on some lanes. Follow staff instructions for the lane you’re in.
- Tip: security times are published live, so check before you leave your hotel, especially on early mornings.
