Layover guides

A layover is a free city with a strict curfew. These guides tell you whether it is worth leaving the airport, how to get downtown and back without sprinting, what to eat once you are there, and the exact moment to turn around. Each one was walked by someone with a boarding pass in their pocket and a gate that does not wait.

The guides

Copenhagen

The 6-Hour Copenhagen Reset (from CPH)

Six hours from CPH by someone who lives there. The M2 metro, smørrebrød at Schønnemann, the Wednesday cinnamon roll, the sauna swim, and the Round Tower.

Sofia

Three Hours in Sofia, If You Must (from SOF)
