Our visit here was back in June, 2022. En route to CPH, we had a long layover. Arriving just before 1600 hours, I though we'd beaten rush hour. WRONG! Rush hour was already waiting for us inside. At the time of our visit, the entry had not yet been 'automated' (scan your boarding pass, and the system determines if you get to go in, with a 'guard' standing by the machines). So right at the top of the escalator, there was a line, even though there were a good 3 or 4 agents to check you in. That was a taste to come.
Turn the corner after you're checked in, and you'll be met with a few hundred of your closest friends, the supporting cast to a Thomas Hardy novel. The bar wait is not THAT bad (3 or 4 deep is my recollection), since there are several busy barkeeps, but the food line - you can fuhgetabadit! One look at that long queue and you've cured whatever hunger pangs you had. Peaking over the shoulders of those in line confirmed that, meh, it's not worth the wait. You just MIGHT be able to sneak a bowl of soup around the corner - it's not cutting in line, since it's at the end of the line, where there is no line. But otherwise, this will be a good exception to drinking on an empty stomach. Suffice to say, we did not stay long - not when the Centurion Lounge is an option.
The facility itself is really quite big, with good amenities (showers!). The back side overlooking some gates is sunny and could be relaxing. They have a thoughtful Prosecco station right as you enter, which is a good option if you want to quickly quench your thirst. All that to not only dwell on the negative, and therefore 3 instead of 2 stars. But along with the staff necessary to properly take care of the hordes of customers, this was just way too crowded, at least on this particular day.
