Transit question at CPH
Hello all,
I would like to ask for your advice about the following flight:
HEL - CPH - BHX
I shall arrive at CPH terminal 3 at 16:40 and depart at 17:30 for BHX. The first leg is with Blue1 (flight no 643) and the second leg with SAS (flight number 2535).
Do you think 50 mins is long enough to transit?
Could someone talk me through the process - will I have to clear security or immigration?
Thanks for your help

You should be fine if the flight is on time. You will have to go through "emigration" since you leave Schengen. I haven't experienced recently but in past years they sometimes are understaffed so queues form. It will probably also be a relatively long walk.

You should be just fine as Gnaget says. There will be no additional security , so you can head directly from your arrival gate towards the C-pier , that handles the non-schengen flights. On entering the C-pier you will go through passport control and can proceed to your departure gate for your BHX flight.
Best guesstimate total transfertime , gate to gate , would be 10-15 mins.
