easier to get to

[Tulip89]

Hi!

Can you help me which one is correct of the next three sentences and why?
1. Copenhagen is easier to get to than Sydney.
2. To Copenhagen is easier to get to than Sydney.
3. To Copenhagen is easier to get to than to Sydney.

Thanks in advance!

Only sentence 1. is correct. This is how to make a straightforward comparison in English. The 'To' at the beginning of the other sentences is completely wrong.

You could say, however:

To get to Copenhagen is easier than to get to Sydney.

Thank you for your answer!

I agree about the "To" at the beginning. The "to" before "Sydney" in 3 is wrong too.
