Most common direction of landing at Kastrup AIrport, Copenhagen
 
Can anyone tell me what is the most common landing direction at Kastrup Airport in Copenhagen, Denmark?

Is it landing to the Northeast (Copenhagen city on LEFT of aircraft) or is it landing to the Southwest (Copenhagen city on the RIGHT of aircraft)?

What influences the direction? Just wind?

It's most common (IME) to by-pass Copenhagen entirely, and land from the east over the Oresund. Aircraft from the west do a loop over Scania. While you don't see the city, you do get great views of the Oresund and its bridge.

I would imagine wind is the biggest influence (given its intensity round there!)

If you want to have a great view on the bridge and are coming from south you should go for a window seat on the left - the view on the bridge is quite amazing.
