Regarding tickets for local transport in Copenhagen

Buy a 10-trip multiride ticket ("klippekort") for 2 zones (blue) at a station or a 7 Eleven or already at the airport.
Going from central Copenhagen to the venue you need to stamp it once before entering the train, or just after entering the bus.
Going to/from the airport you need to stamp it twice (it's 3 zones).
The same tickets are valid in both Metro, busses and trains, and as long as you stay within the time limit you can change between these.
