Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Aartselaar

The drive from Zaventem to Aartselaar

The transfer covers 38 km (24 miles) and typically takes about 28 minutes. It is a regularly booked route, so drivers know it well. The journey runs from the airport area towards the province of Antwerp. Traffic around Brussels and on the approach to Antwerp can build up during the morning and late afternoon rush hours. If you have a tight connection or an appointment on arrival, allow some extra time at those hours. Because the ride is private, the driver goes straight to your address in Aartselaar without other stops.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage and entered the arrivals area.

Choosing the right vehicle

The vehicle depends mainly on group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, families and small business groups.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good fit for larger families or friends travelling with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16 and 24 Seats: for team trips, wedding parties and mid-sized tour groups.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats: for conference delegations, school groups and large organised tours.

If you have bulky luggage such as sports equipment or several large suitcases, consider the next size up so everyone travels comfortably.
