Buy a DOT three-zone single, kr. 30 — not the four-zone one at kr. 40, which the machine will also sell you. Two children under 12 travel free with a ticketed adult; under-16s pay about half. A City Pass Small, kr. 100 for 24 hours, beats singles from the fourth ride.
A private car to your door: DKK 739 for four
Four pay DKK 120 on the M2 metro. The car meets you in arrivals and takes you to any address in Copenhagen in about 20 min, at a price fixed when you book ahead with Welcome Pickups.
A partner link: Welcome Pickups pays us a commission on a booking. It has no say in how the options are ranked.

13 min.
Worth knowing
It runs every night of the week: every 8 minutes after Friday and Saturday, every 20 after Sunday to Thursday, between 01:00 and 07:00. Every 2 minutes in the peaks and 3 the rest of the day.
Journey times are Rejseplanen's: 13 minutes to Kongens Nytorv and 15 to Nørreport. Metroselskabet says "14 minutes to the centre" without naming a station; the airport says 15 to Nørreport.
This ticket does not cross the bridge. For Malmö you need an Øresund ticket from the airport, and a different train.
On the way
The stops worth knowing, in riding order, with the minutes from the airport in the operator's own timetable.
Does the M2 metro stop at Christianshavn?
Yes. It calls at Christianshavn on the way to Kongens Nytorv in 13 minutes (change for M3 and M4) and Nørreport in 15, 11–12 minutes from the airport by the operator's timetable.
