Was looking at few nights in Copenhagen from midlands but flights are around 200...is this normal price for now?
I missed a cheap one for about 110 and have seen prices now 225 to well over 300.
Is it best to book the flights a day or two before? I have a few days off this month's and next.

    Luton has Ryanair flights to CPH that might be cheaper.

    Yes I only ever use Skyscanner

    Too much time and expense getting to Luton for length of trip.

    What I mean is...is this a good price from a non London airport and could j get it cheaper booking 2 days before?

    Overnight coach could save loads as there are some to London then get the coach to Luton (possibly the easy bus to Luton)

    Good. Interesting what can be found if you look just a little wider.
