A number of bus routes go to the airport. Busses 143 and 43 route from Vejle on the east coast of Jutland to the airport. Bus 43 stops at less locations than 143, making the trip shorter and faster. Vejle is connected to the rest of Denmark by train, and if going to the airport from fx. Copenhagen, it would be most logical to take the train to Vejle, and then bus (1)43 to the airport. Airport busses between Billund airport and Aarhus city depart almost every hour during the day. | A number of bus routes go to the airport.
