I don’t know anyone with a 2+ hour time to clear security at CPH this year. Even 45 minutes was on the very high end there for regular screening at the busiest times.
Sure. My record in CPH was when I was on a charter flight - so no priority. 55 minutes to clear security, another 60 to clear passport control. On a Thursday morning, nonetheless. Arrived at Kastrup by 6.40am, got to the gate by 9am. SDT was 9.20am, so boarding had commenced by then. We were delayed 30 minutes so more passengers could join, as there were quite a few held up at passport control. They were picked out of the queue and pulled to the front of the queue by airport staff (the flight was just colleagues of mine, 180 of them, so first hand source for that one)
