Good to know about Aarhus

The airport is at Tirstrup, not in Aarhus

Aarhus Airport (AAR) sits on Djursland at Tirstrup, with the postal address Ny Lufthavnsvej 24, 8560 Kolind. That puts 42 km of road between the terminal and Aarhus Central Station, most of it on Route 15, and Ebeltoft is nearer than the city the airport is named after. The airport describes the drive into the city centre as about 35 minutes.2

Billund Airport as the alternative

Billund Airport (BLL) is the second airport for Aarhus. The road to Aarhus Central Station runs 94 km via Route 30 and the E45 motorway, about 69 minutes with clear roads. That is about twice the drive from Aarhus Airport, so weigh it against the flight times on offer before you choose where to land.1
