Billund Airport (BLL) serves much of western Denmark and parts of southern Jutland. It is located 3 km north of the town of Billund, 28 km from Vejle, 30 km from Kolding, and roughly 100 km from Aarhus.
Despite its relatively rural location, it handles more than 3 million passengers annually, which makes it Denmark's second-busiest airport after Copenhagen (CPH).
The main reason for that is the LEGOLAND Billund Resort and the LEGO House. They are both located in Billund and attract millions yearly, making Billund Airport extremely convenient for visiting them. Add to this the several low-cost carriers that operate at the airport, and the result is that Billund is one of the most popular non-seaside leisure destinations in Northern Europe.
Major Airlines - Norwegian Air Shuttle, Wizz Air
Billund Airport has long been popular with low-cost carriers. After Ryanair withdrew from the airport in 2025, Norwegian Air Shuttle launched more than 10 new routes, becoming the largest airline at BLL. While most destinations are served only seasonally, a few flights operate year-round, most notably to London-Gatwick and Oslo.
The other LCC with many flights to and from Billund is Wizz Air. It offers frequent flights to cities in Eastern Europe, especially in Poland, Romania, and Hungary.
Scandinavian Airlines, the official flag carrier of Denmark (along with Sweden and Norway), flies between Billund and its three hubs in Copenhagen, Stockholm, and Oslo.
Of the full-service national carriers to fly to BLL, notable ones are Air France, Lufthansa, KLM, British Airways, and LOT Polish Airlines.
