Luggage Storage Copenhagen Airport (CPH)

About Copenhagen Airport

Copenhagen Airport, also known as Kastrup, lies to the southeast of the Danish capital. It's not only the biggest airport in the country, but the biggest of any Nordic country. Its 30 million annual passengers make it the 3rd busiest airport in northern Europe.

As large airports tend to be, Copenhagen is a little way outside the city it serves. However, it is well-connected to the city by both train and Metro services that run 24 hours a day and can reach Copenhagen in around 15 minutes. This means reaching the city from the airport, or vice versa, is a breeze.

Copenhagen is one of the oldest airports you're likely to visit, first opened in 1925. Back then, the runways were grass, which was kept short by a flock of resident sheep. However, by the end of the Second World War, Copenhagen was the most modern airport in Europe.

Because it gets so much traffic, Copenhagen airport seems to be continually expanding. This means there's plenty to keep you occupied while you wait for a flight. Drop your bags at a nearby Bounce luggage storage location so that you can enjoy your time at Copenhagen airport to the fullest.

Things to do near Copenhagen Airport

And because it's so easy to reach the city from the airport, everything Copenhagen has to offer is close by.

• Stretch your legs at Amager Strandpark. Just to the north of the airport, this beach offers expansive views over the sea. On a clear day, you may see as far as Sweden, which lies just across a stretch of open water. Here, you can also participate in watersports or swim in the artificial lagoon.
• Escape the hustle and bustle on Saltholm island. Accessible only by private boat, this low-lying island just off the Danish coast is home to more cows than humans. There's also a bird sanctuary on the island, and if it wasn't for the constant sight of planes landing at Copenhagen airport, you might feel like you are hundreds of miles away from the city.
