By plane
Odense Airport IATA: ODE, ICAO: ICOD (http://www.odense-lufthavn.dk/), no longer engages in domestic flights and international services has been much reduced since the construction of the Great Belt Bridge, However the small local carrier AirBorne (http://www.flyabc.dk/) operates directs flights to several Italian cities during the summer, including Parma, Firenze and Trieste. Regular schedules services are from the country's other major airports, which thanks to Odense central location are not far way:

By Yacht
Odense City has been made accessible to yachts by the construction of a 7 km long canal from Odense Fjord to the old harbour. There are several marinas, however it is recommended that you make sure they have visitor berths before you arrive. You can also dock at marinas in Svendborg, Faaborg or Kerteminde. Then a connecting train or bus would link you to Odense.
By bus
The cream coloured buses from FynBus (http://www.fynbus.dk/uk/v...) travel to Odense from locations all over the island of Funen, Fredericia in Jutland, and Nykøbing on the island of Falster.
Regional buses arrive at & depart from the regional bus hub which can be found behind Odense Train Station on the north side of the railway. These are not to be confused with the local busses which depard from within the train station terminal on the south side of the railway. The Intra-city buses can be regognized from the regional buses by the length of the line number. Two-digit number lines are intra-city while 3-digit numbers are regional and inter-city.
By car
Odense is situated in the centre of the island Funen da.Fyn, and although not technically correct, many Danes consider it to be the centre of Denmark. The main highway between east Zealand and west Jutland Denmark, the E20, runs trough the southern suburbs of the city. If you are driving from Germany, this highway branches of the highway from Germany E45 right after the Kolding à exit. It is important to note that there is a toll for crossing the Great-Belt Bridge from Zealand to Funen, the cost is 200 DKK one-way.
