Getting to GRU

CPTM Line 13-Jade commuter train runs from Luz station (central São Paulo) to the airport terminal in 33 minutes (R$4.40 integrated fare with metro). Trains run every 30 minutes from around 5am to midnight. This route is significantly cheaper than driving, as the Dutra highway (BR-116) suffers chronic congestion.Taxis from Paulista Avenue or Consolação cost R$90–150 and take 45–90 minutes depending on traffic. Ride-hails (99 or Uber) are widely used and typically R$70–120. Executive bus services (Guarucoop, Lira) run from Tietê terminal and Paulista (R$52–62). Traffic on the Dutra highway peaks heavily in afternoon and evening hours.

Getting from CPH

The Metro M2 runs every 4–6 minutes from the airport station to central Copenhagen (15 min, DKK 36 on Rejsekort). DSB regional trains depart for Copenhagen Central Station (13 min) and continue to Malmö (Sweden) via the Øresund Bridge (35 min total from airport). Taxis from arrivals to the city centre cost DKK 250–350; Uber also operates.Terminal 3 (international) and Terminal 2 (domestic/Schengen) are connected by a covered walkway. Rental car desks are in Terminal 3 arrivals. CPH is also a ferry hub; routes to Oslo (DFDS) and Bornholm depart from Copenhagen's harbour, accessible via city transit.

Copenhagen Climate

Temperate maritime climate. Winters (November–February) are cold and frequently overcast at −2 to 5°C with rain, sleet, and occasional snow. Copenhagen is better prepared for winter operations than many European cities, but heavy snowfall still causes delays. Fog is a seasonal disruption risk, particularly October through January.

Summers (June–August) are mild and pleasant at 18–24°C with long daylight hours and generally good flying conditions. Wind from the southwest can be strong year-round. CPH has a crosswind reputation. Spring and autumn are transitional and variable.
