Denmark flight FAQs
You can fly from London to Denmark in under two hours. Flights to Copenhagen take around hour and 50 minutes, while flights to Billund take one hour and 40 minutes.
We fly from London Heathrow to both Copenhagen and Billund, while our partner airline SUN-AIR of Scandinavia flies from London City and Manchester to Billund.
You’ll find great prices all year round, though you might find flights are slightly cheaper in February or March. Keep an eye out for our special offers or search our low fare finder to see the cheapest flights for each month of the year.
Denmark has a wealth of free attractions, so you can take in its cultural highlights and natural beauty without spending a penny – or Krone. While you may need to budget for dining out, you’ll get much better value for your money if you avoid the central tourist areas. Take advantage of city and rail passes if you’re travelling around, as they offer free entry to certain museums and attractions too.
Denmark is known for its excellent public transport, so it’s easy to get around by buses, trains and even ferries, if you’re exploring the islands. In Copenhagen and Billund, join the locals by walking or renting a bike – or take advantage of the efficient train and bus lines.
You can also hire a car with British Airways if you want to see more of what Denmark has to offer. You’ll receive great benefits, with all mandatory charges included and 24-hour customer support, plus you’ll collect Avios points on every rental.
With a milder climate than the rest of Scandinavia, dramatic coastlines and cosmopolitan cities to explore, Denmark is perfect for a short getaway any time of year. Discover the Danish concept of Hygge – the art of being cosy and content – in winter, and enjoy the long daylight hours in summer, when the locals flock to the beaches and hike across the countryside.
It's easy to get away from it all when you visit the islands. The island Møn on Zealand’s south coast is home to striking white cliffs and a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, where you can kayak, snorkel or hunt for fossils. Or head to Langeland, 30 minutes from Svendborg, where you can tour the 13th-century Tranekær Castle before heading to the island’s southern tip to spot herds of wild horses.
