But you will have access to the SAS lounges since you are arriving on a SAS intercontinental flight in business class.There are a number of private cabins with shower facilities in connection with the lounges.But I donīt know how easy it is to get one since the number of cabins are quite limited .

I've been using the rest cabins nearly weekly this year and a lot of times last year. I've had no problem getting them. Most passengers entitled to lounge access seem to either have no clue they exist or have little or no use for them. I get a lot of interesting looks when going into or out of the rest cabins. To get the keys for them, it is necessary to talk to the service desk people in the business lounge side as that is where the lounge entry guardians will send you when requesting a rest cabin or a shower.

There are stand alone showers, and that is what most people get. I only ask for the rest cabins (1 of 2) when I want to nap for a few hours. I've not yet been turned down for them or had to wait to get access at any point in the last several years.

When I fly CO in business class to CPH -- like yesterday -- and am not going onward, CO says they have no arrivals facilities at CPH. Will SK lounge personnel allow in arriving CO business class customers with no onward travel plans that day? My workaround has been to get a refundable ticket for Star Alliance travel from CPH to another European airport and enter the lounge that way because I'm not sure if the SK CPH lounge staff are going to be as strict with me as a partner *Gold as the SK OSL lounge staff.
