How do I get from Copenhagen city centre to Copenhagen airport?

For one traveler the M2 metro is the way we recommend: DKK 30 in total, 13 min, boarding at any M2 station towards Lufthavnen. It runs at any hour.

Early flight?

There is no early-morning gap to plan around: the metro and the Øresund trains both run through the night, so a dawn flight has the same kr. 30 way in as any other hour.

Tickets

Buy before you board: at the DSB machines or counter in Terminal 3, or in the Rejsebillet or DSB app. There is no sale on board the metro or the Øresund train, and travelling without a valid ticket risks a fine.
