Scandinavia / Airports / CPH / ARN / OSL
Hi guys,
To ease your choice of where to connect through Scandinavia, let's assemble a list here:
Information valid July 2015
CPH: Yes. Outside smoking terrace next to the B-finger. Accessible for all travelers. If you want to smoke past passport control in the C-finger, you have to exit the non-Schengen area and re-enter (which is not a problem). The walk from the smoking terrace to the ex-Schengen finger is approximately 10 minutes.
ARN: Yes. Smoking booths found close to many gates.
OSL: No.

No smoking airside in any norwegian airport. (Someone correct me if I'm wrong)

The wait times at CPH passport control to get into or out of the non-Schengen flight departure area may also be a disincentive for even admissible non-European passport users to go back and forth (in either direction) between the Schengen and non-Schengen departure sides of the airport.

Can someone advise if there is any place where smoking is allowed in C gates area? According to the CPH airport website the only smoking area in close to gate A18, but report at Airport Smokers says there is smoking area close to gates C15-C40.

I recall seeing one above the 7-11 in the C gates in February. Not sure about any closures after that.
