Europe air fees... WTF? [View all]

I was just kinda looking, thinking about going to Denmark. Get this (Expedia):

Atlanta to Copenhagen
Sun Sep/2/2012 - Wed Sep/12/2012

1 Ticket: Roundtrip

Traveler 1: Adult$1,072.60
Flight$453.00
Taxes & Airline Fees $619.60
Expedia Booking Fee $0.00

Surely these are US and European fees combined but wow... more than the airfare itself!
