Denmark-UBER has left the building.

It seems that UBER has stopped operating in Denmark as it's drivers will find it hard to comply with new licensing laws.

Hi,
Can anyone recommend another taxi or car service that is comparable in price to Uber? Especially for transport to and from the airport. Thanks.

the airport? Well there are usually official taxis outside waiting for passengers at all airports.
Seeing as UBER has been stopped means that offical taxis are the way to go.

>>comparable in price to Uber?<<

Huh? Uber uses dynamic pricing so how would one know if it is comparable?

Catch the bus, runs often enough and pretty fast

I'm looking for a car or taxi service that I can arrange for pick ups in advance. We're traveling with a young child and big bags so public transportation won't work for us for the airport. Since we'll have the baby with us, I think it would be easier to arrange a pick up, at least for airport transfers. The services I've found so far are very expensive so I'm looking for other options.

Scandinavia is an expensive area, so be prepared for that!. To pick up a car, you exit the building and walk past the taxi rank, so if you're concerned about bags and kids, take a taxi, it's much easier.

Car rental is not expensive, parking might be though, depending on where you are staying. Street parking is not expensive and weekends are free.

Copenhagen city centre is only 20mins from the airport, take a taxi from outside the terminal.

I know I'll sound grumpy but we traveled with children and luggage and never needed a pick up.
Taxi or rental.

There are larger van taxis -- no reason you need a car service/pick up
