Getting to Lund:
The best way to get to Lund from abroad is to either fly to Copenhagen (CPH) or to Malmö (MMX) which can be reached by both regular airlines and low cost carriers.
From Copenhagen Airport: Take the train directly from the
airport to Lund central station (Lund C), which may require a change of train
in Malmö. The trains depart every 20 minutes, duration is around 1 hour and
it costs 135 SEK (about 14 euros) one way. Homepage (in English) is available
here.
From Malmö Airport: Take the airport shuttle "Flygbussen"
from directly outside the terminal towards Lund. The buses leave on a regular
basis and in conjunction with arrivals, costs 99 SEK (about 11 euros) one way
and duration is about 45 minutes. If you stay at Hotel Sparta, disembark the
bus at "Ole Römers Väg". Homepage (in English) is available here.
