Direct train from Copenhagen Kastrup Airport to Odense?

I find the DSB site rather sticky, but Orange tickets are advance purchase non-refundable train-specific tickets that go on sale 60 days in advance, much like Swiss Super Saver Tickets. Orange Fri tickets are refundable up to 30 minutes before departure. If you are planning on arriving by plane, probably not a good idea to buy advance nonrefundable tickets as you cannot predict if your flight will be delayed, long wait at immigration, or luggage problems. Is saving $25 that big a deal.

BTW, I see you can buy tickets at Deutsche Bahn for 44.20 EUR, about $48 at current exchange. If you want a seat reservation, that is 4.50 EUR, or about $5.

Hi,

Yes, that should possible. What date are you looking on?

Write 'CPH Lufthavn' for Copenhagen Airport on dsb.dk.

The maximum price between Copenhagen Airport and with DSB is 336 DKK + 30 DKK for a seat reservation, and tickets don't sell out. And I'd always recommend buying directly from the operator whenever possible. They have the best fares + it can make it easier to get help if that is needed.

Thank you for these replies. I find the DSB website extremely difficult to use on my older iMAC. I try to enter CPH Lufthavn and it boots me out. I try to change the date and it locks up or changes the date by a day from the date I select. I have better luck on my iPhone but it is all in Danish! I don't get the pop-up to translate to english like I do on my iMAC. All that being said, the advice for not being locked in to a specific departure time with the Orange ticket makes sense. The Orange Fri option looks like a better choice with the ability to change the ticket up to 3 minutes prior to the departure (for a price of $27 vs. $19). When you say buy directly from the vendor I assume you mean DSB rather than site like "thetrainline."

I had the same issues you had with the DSB website, thus my statement, "rather sticky" and I am using a PC laptop.

Hi again,

Yes, when I say buy from the operator, I mean buy from DSB.

That sounds weird, it works just fine on my (relatively new) Mac and slightly older iPhone.

They have an English version of their website, you just need to type in dsb.dk/en instead of dsb.dk. If the website doesn't work, there's also the DSB app in the App Store. Maybe that'll do the trick.

Orange Fri tickets can't be changed to another train, but they can be refunded up to 30 minutes before the scheduled departure time. So if you need to take another train, you'll need to refund your Orange Fri ticket and buy a new ticket for the new train. Prices for the "Standard" tickets are fixed and will not change (and won't sell out), and a Standard ticket is valid on any train on the selected route on the selected day (defined as 4 AM-3:59 AM). The Standard tickets can also be purchased in ticket machines upon arrival (Orange/Orange Fri can only be purchased online and in the app).

Agree as others stated the DSB site is a bit wonky to use regardless of what device you are on. That was my experience. I made the mistake on our trip of buying tickets and not including a seat reservation. I didn't realize it was two different charges. I then had to spend time at the DSB office at Copenhagen Central Station for a ticket agent to explain to me that yes I have a ticket for the train to Odense but I don't have a seat. It still confuses me! Anyway, he stressed we needed to also purchase the seat reservation as Odense being a city can be popular and sometimes the train could be full.

Thanks for all the good advice. I'm glad it is not just me having trouble with the dsb.dk website. I tried it with the "en" on the end and the first page came up translated into English. But the following pages with the train options was in Danish! I sent an inquiry to DSB and they say their goal is to respond within 14 days!

An excuse to learn Danish?

Hmmm that sounds weird.

In my experience, they reply a lot faster via Facebook Messenger - usually within a day, sometimes within a few hours. (And yes, for some reason Messenger is the preferred texting app in Denmark...)
