Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Athus

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Athus

Athus lies in the far south-east of Belgium, and the journey from Brussels Zaventem Airport covers 201 km (125 miles). Under normal conditions the drive takes about 2 h 4 m. That is a long ride, so a private transfer means you sit back after landing and are taken straight to your address, with no connections to manage with luggage.

Allow some extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush around Brussels, on busy holiday weekends or in wet and wintry weather. Athus is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but it is available on request like any other route. It is best to book ahead so the driver and vehicle are arranged before you land.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

With a trip of just over two hours, comfort and luggage space matter. Pick the vehicle that fits your party:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, families and small business groups.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats (1-8 passengers): a good choice for larger families or groups with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16 and 24 Seats: for team trips, wedding parties or organised groups.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats: for coach-sized groups travelling together, such as conferences, tours or sports teams.

If you are unsure whether your luggage will fit, choose the next size up. It costs little in comfort and saves problems at the kerb.

About Athus

Athus is a small town in the province of Luxembourg, part of the municipality of Aubange. It sits right at the corner where Belgium meets France and the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, which makes it a convenient base for visiting all three countries. The town has an industrial past linked to steelmaking, and the surrounding area is green and quiet. Visitors usually come to see family, for business in the border region or as a starting point for trips into Gaume and southern Luxembourg.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House at Brussels Zaventem Airport, holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can meet your driver without hunting through the terminal.
