Once airborne, however, I really did fall asleep in earnest and did not wake up at all until we landed and pulled up at our gate. So, I have no idea whether they served meals, drinks, did magic shows or offered pole dancing – maybe I missed out on some great in-flight entertainment But then again, maybe not. I also didn’t manage to film the landing which I was a little annoyed about.

In any case, I walked off the aircraft bang on time and walked up to CPH airport. Having used this airport before, I knew it was a very nice little airport with a very Scandinavian design and a decent lounge – here are some photos inside the terminal.








All in all, this flight did exactly what I wanted it to do, which was to bring me to CPH on time. Legroom was a bit tight but for GBP50 including all taxes, I shouldn’t complain too much!

Flight 2: SK503 CPH-LHR 27MAR (FR), MD82, Business Class Seat 2F
STD: 1200 (On Time) STA: 1305 (On Time)


Once I reached the main terminal, I made my way to the transfer counter in case they could issue my LHR-SIN boarding pass there. Answer was no, but they could replace my home-printed boarding pass with a normal one, which was appreciated since the A4 sheet would take up far too much room in my collection.

Then I walked to the SAS lounges where I had hoped to use the nicer Scandinavian lounge upstairs, but since I do not have a Star Gold card and did not have my LHR-SIN F boarding pass, I was only allowed to use the Business lounge downstairs. No biggie – I was only planning to be there for 30 minutes or so in any case, most of it spent walking around taking photos!
