Final destination: Göteborg, Kalmar or Karlskrona
All trains also call at: CPH Lufthavn/Copenhagen Airport
Departing from Kobenhavn/Copenhagen:
These trains call at Østerport and Nørreport stations before they depart from København H station
If you will be heading to Malmo from central Kobenhavn/Copenhagen or stations on the Kobenhaven Metro - including Kongens Nytorv (the closest station to Nyhavn) - the quickest and easiest option is to board these trains at Norreport.
Osterport station is a few minutes walk from statue of The Little Mermaid.
At peak times these trains can be very busy so finding seats available in 2nd class is not guaranteed if you board at København H station.

The Journey:
The train will travel between Denmark and Sweden on the Oresund Line.
After departure from CPH Lufthavn the train will enter a tunnel and then emerge on to a man-made island from which it will ascend on to The Oresund Bridge.
The train will spend around 2 - 3 mins travelling across the bridge.
However, don't expect spectacular views from the bridge - though travelling across it will be a thrill for engineering fans and it is unique travel experience with an undeniable wow factor!
