What to know before your transfer at Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (CPH)
Tolls, charges, terminal pickup zones and local rules that affect your private transfer at Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (CPH).
Driver meets you at baggage-hall exit
Your Transfeero driver holds a name sign at the arrivals baggage-hall exit in whichever terminal your flight lands (Terminal 2 or Terminal 3). Both terminals feed into one common arrivals area, so your driver's location is straightforward to find. No need to search different pickup points.
E20 motorway, 15–20 min to centre
The main route from Kastrup to Copenhagen city centre is the E20 motorway, a direct drive of 15–20 minutes under normal traffic. Peak hours (7–9 a.m., 5–7 p.m.) add 15–30 minutes. All Transfeero prices include any regulatory compliance on this route.
Low-Emission Zone fees included in price
Copenhagen's Low-Emission Zone (Miljøzone) applies to all vehicles. Compliance, registration requirements and any zone-related fees are fully included in your fixed Transfeero price. No extra charges, no surprises, no 1,500 DKK fines to worry about.
Free 60-minute wait for flight delays
If your flight is delayed, your Transfeero driver monitors it in real time and adjusts arrival at no extra cost. You have a free 60-minute wait at airport arrivals while your driver remains ready. Terminal changes are also covered with no additional fee.
Transfer insights for Copenhagen Kastrup Airport
Copenhagen Kastrup Airport operates two terminals: Terminal 2 primarily handles non-Schengen international flights, while Terminal 3 serves as the main hub for Schengen and domestic operations. After clearing immigration and collecting baggage, all passengers exit through the common arrivals hall, where your Transfeero driver will be waiting with a name sign at the baggage-hall exit. The airport's layout is integrated, meaning whether you land in Terminal 2 or 3, you'll proceed through the same streamlined flow. Note that the taxi rank operates directly outside Terminal 3; forecourt pickup rules are standard Danish airport protocol with no unusual restrictions.
The main route from Kastrup to central Copenhagen follows the E20 motorway, a direct 15–20 minute drive under normal conditions. During peak arrival hours (typically 7–9 a.m. and 5–7 p.m.), congestion on the E20 can add 15–30 minutes to your journey, particularly at the motorway approaches near the city. The route is straightforward with no major bottlenecks once you clear the airport precinct, though summer weekends and school holidays see heavier traffic. The journey to central Copenhagen landmarks like Nyhavn or the Central Station typically takes 25–40 minutes depending on traffic and your final destination.
Denmark has no motorway tolls on the E20, and Copenhagen operates no congestion charge as of early 2025, though a scheme has been proposed. However, the Low-Emission Zone (Miljøzone) applies to all vehicles entering Copenhagen city centre, requiring valid registration compliance; vehicles in breach face fines of 1,500 DKK. All Transfeero partners hold the Danish Chauffeur License for lawful commercial passenger transport. Crucially, your fixed Transfeero price covers all zone compliance, registration requirements and any regulatory fees—there are no hidden charges, no surprise levies, and no need to worry about emission-zone penalties.
Taxis from the rank outside Terminal 3 typically charge 250–350 DKK to central Copenhagen depending on traffic and time of day, with no fixed rate and potential surge pricing during busy periods. The public Metro (M2) and regional trains offer cheap alternatives at around 30 DKK but require navigating luggage through crowds and multiple stops; they operate 24/7 but during peak hours you may wait 10–15 minutes for a train. Pre-booking a Transfeero transfer means your driver adjusts in real time to flight delays at no extra cost, meets you directly at arrivals, handles luggage without hassle, and locks in a transparent fixed price before you travel—eliminating the unpredictability of metered taxis and the friction of public transport with heavy bags.
