Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Cheratte

Meeting Point at Brussels Zaventem Airport

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find after you have collected your luggage, so you can walk there straight from baggage reclaim.

The Drive from BRU to Cheratte

The route covers 99 km (62 miles) and typically takes 1 h 1 m. From Zaventem you head east towards the province of Liège, so the trip is a proper regional transfer rather than a short hop. Allow extra time on weekday mornings and late afternoons, when traffic around Brussels is heaviest, and in heavy rain or winter weather, when the motorways can slow down.

Because the transfer is private, the driver takes you directly to your address with no stops for other passengers. Cheratte is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle you need depends on group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, families and small groups with standard luggage.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good choice for four or more people with large suitcases or sports equipment.
• Private Minibus 16 and 24 Seats: suited to extended families, business groups and small tour parties.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats: for teams, clubs, wedding parties and company outings travelling together.
