If you fly direct from NYC(EWR) you will arrive in the morning - and thus if you want to go straigh to Oslo, a plane is the better option. Check

Good luck
Well, a nighttime ferry seems like a nice way to see things, however it will be dark, so how much can I see? A car ride is also a good idea, but unless we do a one way rental (I checked, and thats $$$$), I have to budget ALOT of my 3 days I have free just for driving between cities...With the flight schedules of the 2 carriers that fly this direct, it sounds like I would have to hang around CPH for a good 3-4 hours between my flight inbound and my outbound...*sigh* I hate it when schedules don't work out.
