Sixt is the only supplier that accepts a debit card, and only for some cars rather than all of them. Filter for a debit card on the results page before comparing prices so you only see vehicles you can drive away. Extra charges at the desk are listed under each vehicle.

If you bring your own child seat, check your airline's rules first: most carry one free, some charge.

A Compact car like a Kia Ceed typically costs $53 a day at Copenhagen Airport for October 2026 booked about a month ahead. It seats 5 people but fits 3 bags, so a full group with large luggage will need soft bags on laps or an upgrade to an Intermediate like a Nissan Qashqai, which takes 4 bags at $65 a day. Automatic cars make up 63% of cars offered, but choosing one costs $88 a day compared to $80 for a manual, so stick to manual if you want to keep costs down. Electric and hybrid cars each account for 6% of what is offered, so you must book them early if you want one.
