Your guide to booking Athens to Copenhagen flights

Get tips on when to book, when to fly and what to know before your trip.
  • If your dates are flexible, aim for a Thursday departure and avoid flying on Friday. On this route, Thursday flights average $253, about $47 less than Friday fares (16% savings) based on the last 12 months.
  • For the best chance at a low fare, aim to book around 21 weeks before you fly. On this route, that window historically saves about 51% versus last-minute pricing (KAYAK booking data, last 12 months).
  • If you can choose when to travel, plan your Athens to Copenhagen trip for January. Fares historically average $236 round-trip in that month - typically $117 less than the most expensive month, which is July (based on the last 12 months).
  • For the best chance of arriving on time, fly with Aegean Airlines. Over the past three months, 82% of Aegean Airlines flights from Athens to Copenhagen arrived on time, slightly above the route average of 78%. When flights on this route arrive late, they're delayed by an average of 1h 29m, so choosing an airline with strong on-time performance can make a difference if you're on a tight schedule.
  • If you have the time, taking a 1-stop flight through Barcelona-El Prat Airport (BCN) can be cheaper than flying direct. The cheapest layover option averages $75 round-trip on this route - about $217 less than direct flights (based on the last 12 months).
  • When flying out of Athens International Airport (ATH), consider booking with Aegean Airlines to get more flight options at relatively lower costs, since this is its main hub.
  • When looking for sustainable flying options, you’ll find that Ryanair is one of the best ones to consider. It has branded itself as Europe’s cleanest and greenest airline group, and it’s not just corporate PR. It has invested in lightweight, fuel-efficient aircraft that helps reduce carbon emissions over many trips, and it also has carbon offsetting programs to allow passengers to offset their carbon emissions for each trip.
  • Lufthansa is a good option for business travelers on this route. It has onboard Wi-Fi available for this trip, which allows you to browse freely and take advantage of the time spent traveling to catch up on office emails and projects.
  • When flying Economy with Lufthansa, Economy Classic is a better option compared to Economy Light, since it allows you a carry-on bag and checked bag for free with your ticket. You can also select your seat in advance.
  • While U.S. citizens can travel between Athens and Copenhagen without needing a visa, you should know that this waiver has a 90-day limit over 180 days, so be sure to keep that in mind to avoid trouble with immigration.
