Just a note to point out that this is nothing new – I’ve been flying regularly between the UK and Copenhagen for the last four years or so, and there have always been free copies of the FT available both in Arrivals & Departures – and yes, I’m sure it pissed off a few people who’d splashed out some Kroners in WHSmith – but let’s face it: a) they can afford it, and b) they’re just being punished for lack of observational skills!
I’d also like to take this opportunity to plug The Copenhagen Daily Post – Denmark’s fantastic and only all-english newspaper – which is rather misleadingly named, as I believe it’s still published weekly…!?(please correct me if I’m wrong) It’s also free throughout Copenhagen International, and helped me keep track of ‘Dansk Nyhed’.
Also of note – anyone keeping track of the freesheet war in the South between Metro & Argus Lite? There have been some heated-looking exchanges between distributors outside Brighton station i’ve noticed! My Tip for the Argus – STAPLES!

There’s a prize (a free copy of the FT) photographic or video evidence of heated exchanges between free sheet distributors at Brighton station… :-)
