Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Cras-Avernas

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Cras-Avernas

The route covers 60 km (37 miles) and usually takes around 40 minutes by road. Cras-Avernas is not a frequently booked destination, but transfers here are available on request just like any other route. Because the trip is a point-to-point ride, you go straight from the terminal to your address without changing vehicles or carrying luggage across platforms.

The first stretch leaves the Zaventem area and passes around Brussels, where traffic is heaviest on weekday mornings and late afternoons. If you have a tight appointment on arrival, add a buffer for those hours. Outside the peak periods the journey is normally smooth, and the final part runs through quieter countryside.

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, so you can head there directly and meet your driver without searching.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Pick the vehicle by group size and luggage load:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, small families and business visitors.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good fit for a larger family or friends travelling with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 Seats: intended for tour groups, wedding parties, school trips and company events that want to arrive together in one vehicle.

If you are close to a vehicle's capacity and carrying large suitcases or sports gear, choose the next size up so everyone travels comfortably.

About Cras-Avernas

Cras-Avernas is a small village in the Hannut area of Wallonia, set in the open, agricultural landscape of Hesbaye. It is a rural, peaceful place rather than a major tourist destination. Most visitors come to see family, to attend a local event, or for business in the surrounding region. Because the village is small, it helps to have the exact street address ready when you book so the driver can take you to the door.
