In which country is the Copenhagen Airport located?

Copenhagen Airport is located in Denmark.

Officially called Copenhagen Airport, Kastrup, it is Denmark’s largest international airport and the primary gateway to the country’s capital. The airport stands on the island of Amager, in the suburb of Kastrup within Tårnby Municipality, roughly 8 kilometers south of central Copenhagen. Its IATA airport code is CPH.

The airport opened in 1925 and has grown into a major Scandinavian transport hub. Although it primarily serves Copenhagen and the wider Danish region, its position near the Øresund connection also makes it important for southern Sweden, including Malmö and the province of Scania. The airport is connected to Copenhagen by metro and rail, while the Øresund Bridge provides a direct route toward Sweden.

A common mix-up is confusing the airport’s city-serving name with its exact municipality: the terminal complex is in Kastrup, not central Copenhagen. Kastrup is still within Denmark and is conventionally described as Copenhagen Airport.
