A good fare to Copenhagen.
United and its partners Air Canada, Austrian, Lufthansa and Swiss Air’s $675 fare is a regular economy fare with ONE checked luggage and normal size carry-on
United and its partners Air Canada, Austrian, Lufthansa and Swiss Air also have a $525 fare, but it is a Basic Economy / Economy Light fare. These Basic Economy / Economy Light fares:
