I just hope you have better luck than I did when I was on my home from Sweden after having visited my son in Lund. I planned on spending a night in the København airport only to discover that it actually CLOSES.
Well, I was able to spend the night, in a manner of speaking, but the lights were turned down and my only associates were the guy driving the zamboni floor polisher, a Nigerian, and a drunk Dane who tried to pick me up. Only in a place such as Denmark do the drunks have a good enough command of a foreign language such as English to be annoying.
I ended up hanging out very near the Nigerian to get away from the Drunk. I wanted to sleep but didn't dare, as I had no way to keep an eye on my belongings or even my person, if you know what I mean. Miraculously, my son showed up at 2 am, as when faced with having to spend a lonely night of his own alone in the Malmø train station, he elected to ride the train back to København to join me, partly because he had no money and he figured I would.
It was a night to remember! By the time I reached Zurich, transferred to my flight back to the states, nearly missing it, and sat down in my seat, I fell asleep before the plane even took off, only a few minutes later.
