Los Angeles–Copenhagen Flights

Roughly 5,610 miles separate Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and Copenhagen Airport (CPH), so a nonstop spends about 11h45 in the air, a little more or less depending on winds and direction. Scandinavian Airlines carries all of the nonstop award space in the data. The Airbus A330-300 shows up on those nonstop award segments. Less than 1% of the award options in the data are nonstop, so most results connect.

Best Ways to Book With Points & Miles

The cabin call comes first on Los Angeles–Copenhagen; on a long-haul trip, the right program follows from it. The cheapest economy seat connects once, and the data has no economy nonstop to pay up for: Scandinavian Airlines' nonstop shows up only in business class. The economy floor adds about $184 in taxes and fees, well above the route's typical economy taxes, so weigh points and cash together before booking. Stepping up costs about 2.7 times the economy points for premium economy and about 3.8 times for business.

Best Points & Miles Programs

Virgin Atlantic Flying Club is cheapest in economy at 15,000 points. American AAdvantage wins premium economy at 40,000 points and business class at 57,500. Alaska Atmos Rewards' 70,000-point first-class fare connects; treat it as mixed-cabin until each segment's cabin checks out. The other eight programs include United MileagePlus, Air Canada Aeroplan, and Air France-KLM Flying Blue. The winner changes at premium economy, so match the program to the cabin before moving points.

Airlines & Routing Options

In the current award data, only Scandinavian Airlines shows nonstop space on Los Angeles–Copenhagen, but as a SkyTeam member its seats also price through alliance partners, not just SAS EuroBonus. Off the nonstop, the cheaper connecting awards in the data route through London, Paris, and Munich. Partner pricing sets the economy floor: Virgin Atlantic Flying Club books Air France as a SkyTeam partner, and no program prices Air France lower in that cabin at last check.

Alternative Airports & Routes

Leaving Los Angeles, Burbank (BUR) and Ontario (ONT) both start at 22,500 points in economy, above the route's 15,000-point economy floor, and work as backups when LAX space is gone. If the destination is open, Los Angeles to Amsterdam prices from 9,500 points at last check.

Booking tips

  1. 1Search flexible dates first, since saver award seats can appear on scattered days.
  2. 2Compare partner programs before transferring points, since the same seat can price very differently.
  3. 3Check both direct and connecting options when direct award seats are limited.
  4. 4Book early for peak travel periods, when saver space disappears fastest.
  5. 5Recheck availability often, since airlines may release more award seats closer to departure.
