About CPH

Kastrup is Scandinavia's busiest airport and the main hub of SAS, which moved from Star Alliance to SkyTeam on 1 September 2024. That switch is why the SAS Lounge now admits SkyTeam elites rather than Star Alliance Gold. Terminal 2 (T2) and Terminal 3 (T3) work as one building behind a shared central security checkpoint, and the metro and regional trains stop at Terminal 3, so arriving by rail puts you a short walk from screening. Once airside you can walk to any pier. The real divide is passport control: flights to the UK, North America, Asia and the Middle East board beyond passport control, and the lounges on the Schengen side are behind you once you cross. Leave time for the passport queue on long-haul departures. The biggest lounge change in 2026 was the rebuild of the old Eventyr Lounge, which reopened under the Pearl name.

How we compile this guide

Sourced, never sponsored.

This guide is compiled from airline, alliance and lounge-operator sources plus published access rules from Priority Pass and DragonPass — we haven't independently visited every Copenhagen Airport, Kastrup lounge yet. Nothing here is a paid placement, and the guide is updated as lounges open, close, renovate or change access policies. Read more about how we verify lounge data.

Best lounges at Copenhagen Airport

Best Overall

Pearl Lounge

The Pearl Lounge, rebuilt in 2026 from the old Eventyr Lounge, is the only lounge past passport control at Copenhagen. It sits at the top of Pier C beside Gates C26–C28 with runway views, opens 05:30–20:00 and takes Priority Pass, DragonPass, oneworld and Star Alliance, so most long-haul passengers have a way in.

Best Airline Lounge

SAS Lounge

The SAS Lounge is the home-hub lounge of SAS, airside near the C gates directly opposite the passport-control entrance. It follows the SAS timetable (open about an hour before the first SAS departure) and admits SkyTeam Elite Plus members and business passengers; the door sells entry when space allows to travellers holding an SAS or SkyTeam boarding pass.

Best for Schengen Flights

Aspire Lounge

The Aspire Lounge near the A gates keeps the longest day at Kastrup, 06:00–22:00, and takes Priority Pass and DragonPass. It is on the first floor with a lift, bookable on LoungeDeal, and the official airport page lists an Aspire Suite upgrade inside the lounge.

Best for Star Alliance

Carlsberg Aviator Lounge

The Carlsberg Aviator Lounge, between Gates A and B on the first floor, opens at 05:00 for the early Schengen bank. Priority Pass and Star Alliance Gold both work, and Copenhagen Airport lists Aegean, Brussels Airlines and Icelandair among its airline partners.
