These are genuinely worth experiencing.

Speaking of lounges, SAS, Scandinavian Airlines, has announced a brand new flagship lounge opening at Copenhagen Airport in June 2027.
LucasHOST
It will be forty percent larger than the current facility, covering forty thousand square feet with panoramic runway views, twenty-four private work pods, a bakery, a bar with barista service, hotel rooms, and a dedicated zone for top-tier elite members.
LucasHOST
It'll follow standard SkyTeam lounge access rules, so SkyTeam Elite Plus members and business class passengers will be eligible.

James SavageHOST

It'll be interesting to see why it did run off the end of the runway in the end, if we do ever get a report on it.

Their schedule isn't open yet with award flights.

Cameron LauferHOST
So there's a discount for 26 and under, which I thought was wonderful.

There was no way to get out of the country except for on a bus.
