Kastrup

Copenhagen Airport

Copenhagen Airport (CPH) at Kastrup on Amager serves Copenhagen and the wider Øresund region. Find practical information about transport, check-in and nearby hotels.

Terminals and check-in

Passenger check-in takes place in Terminal 2 and Terminal 3. Follow your airline’s instructions for check-in and bag drop. Once checked in, passengers travelling with hand baggage only can continue to security. Check the airport’s current check-in guidance for your flight.

Train and metro

Trains from the station at Terminal 3 connect the airport with Copenhagen and Malmö. The metro is a separate service for Copenhagen, not a railway to all Danish cities. Plan your journey at Rejseplanen and follow the airport signs.

Airport hotels

Clarion Hotel Copenhagen Airport, formerly the Hilton, is next to Terminal 3. Check our airport hotel guide for accommodation and rooms.

Shopping, VAT refunds and smoking

VAT refunds depend on residency, purchases and export requirements. Check the airport’s VAT refund guidance for Global Blue and Planet procedures. Follow current smoking signs and use designated areas. Opening hours and services vary; use CPH’s official website rather than old bank-counter or check-in-kiosk instructions.
