The train ride from Båstad train station to Copenhagen Airport takes approximately one hour and 45 minutes and trains run every hour at 32 minutes past the hour. Please do not schedule a flight out of Copenhagen Airport before 5:00 PM on the last day of the trip to allow plenty of time for any unforeseen delays.
