| Research Tips: | Meet the Danes matches travellers to Copenhagen, from lone business execs to young families, with local host families to be invited into their homes for dinner in a bid to foster international exchange. A great way to really find out about Denmark and its people. |
| 2005 will be the 200th anniversary of the birth of the fairytale author, Hans Christian Andersen and the Danes are gearing themselves up to make a huge fuss about it. There will be a year-round programme of artistic events and performances, many of them focused on Odense, the city of his birth. Look out for HCA themed tours and celebrations. |
| Apart from the obvious airlines who have services to Denmark from the UK (BMI, Maersk, BA, SAS, Ryanair, easyJet, and Duo) there are two airlines you might not have thought of: Sunair from Manchester & Edinburgh to Billund, and a fifth freedom service operated by the Brazilian airline Varig between Heathrow & Copenhagen. |
