Where to pick up my car hire at Copenhagen Airport

Many local, national and international car hire suppliers operate out of Copenhagen Airport. This makes opting for a car hire at Copenhagen Airport, one of the best ways for you to continue on your onward journey, as quickly and stress-free as possible. Hertz, Europcar and Avis are just a few of the well-known car rental suppliers present at this airport. Car hire desks can be found in Terminal 1, and at the link corridor between Terminal 2 and 3. It is important to note that the same suppliers have different operating times between Terminals.

Make sure you have with you all the required documents before arriving at the counter. These include ID, driving licence (International Driving Permit, if required), rental voucher and a valid credit card under the main drivers name for a deposit to be held on. For luxury cars, two credit cards may be required. On collecting the car, make sure you inspect it before leaving. Likewise, when you return the car, make sure a member of staff checks the vehicle.

In addition, several bus services operate out of the airport. Buses link from the airport to neighbouring towns and cities, such as, Arhus, Vesterport Street, Viemosevej and more. Bus companies include Swebusexpress, Safflebussen, Eurolines and Grahundbus. A free shuttle bus connecting Copenhagen with the airport is provided, and runs from 6am until 11:30pm.

Taxis are available from the taxi rank outside Terminal 1 & 3 only, whilst passengers arriving by taxi can alight at any terminal.

A free shuttle bus to the train station is available from Terminal 1 and 2. A metro station has been incorporated into Terminal 3 and takes you into Copenhagen in around 15 minutes.

Parking Tips

There is ample parking at the airport. It currently has three short-stay car parks close to Terminal 3, and five long-stay car parks spread out evenly between Terminal 1, 2 and 3. A further two car parks are located past Terminal 3, which are cheaper to stay at, but further away. There is also a drop-off section for those who only need to stay a very short time to drop off or collect passengers. Parking in Copenhagen city is notoriously expensive, so we would recommend using your car rental at Copenhagen Airport for exploring outside the capital – maybe popping over into Sweden. The city is divided into three parking zones. These operate from 8am untill 5pm, Monday to Saturday. Both on-street parking and multi-store car parking is available in the city – with the latter being a more secure option.
