Where can you buy an international train ticket in Denmark?
Tickets to Europe
Short answer
DSB sells train tickets from Denmark to major European cities online on dsb.dk. You can also buy them in person at DSB Salg & Service at the main stations in Copenhagen, Aarhus and Odense, or by phone on +45 70 13 14 18 well before departure. To find a ticket you have already bought, you need your booking reference (DNR) and your e-mail address. Up to four children under 15 travel free with an adult on a ticket to a major European city, and further children get 50 % off.
Why
- You can buy online, by phone or at a station desk.
- The DNR booking reference finds your ticket.
- Children under 15 can often travel free.
