If you want to visit Copenhagen in December or January, there are plenty of flying options (except around Christmas and New Year).
Suppose you opt for a week’s holiday in January. Although it will be chilly in Copenhagen this month, there will be fewer tourist crowds and possibly cheaper hotel room rates. The majority of these flights have a short stopover at Iceland’s Keflavik Airport (KEF).
An Economy Light ticket on Icelandair costs $392 return. With this ticket type you are only allowed to take one piece of hand luggage.
If you want to check your luggage or select a seat, you will have to pay a fee. Instead of paying to check a bag, it is to your advantage to upgrade to Economy Standard for $120 as it includes both a checked bag and free seat selection.
