Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Gits

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House inside Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU), holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find after you have collected your luggage, so you can go straight there and meet your driver without searching the terminal.

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Gits

Gits lies 126 km (79 miles) from the airport, and the journey normally takes around 1 h 27 m. The route heads west across Flanders, so most of the trip is on motorway before the final stretch on local roads into the village. Gits is a less frequently booked destination, but the transfer is available on request like any other route.

Brussels traffic can slow the first part of the journey, especially on weekday mornings and late afternoons. If you have a fixed appointment, a connecting journey or an event in Gits, add a little extra time to the typical duration. Roadworks and weather can also change the pace, and your driver will choose the most sensible route on the day.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For smaller parties, a private taxi is the simplest option. There are taxis for 1-3 passengers and for 1-4 passengers, which suit solo travellers, couples and families with normal luggage. The 4-passenger car gives one more seat if your group needs it.

Larger groups can book a private minibus. The options are:

• 8 seats for up to 8 passengers
• 16 seats for up to 16 passengers
• 24 seats for up to 24 passengers
• 32 seats for up to 32 passengers
• 40 seats for up to 40 passengers
• 48 seats for up to 48 passengers

If you travel with a lot of luggage, sports equipment or wedding items, consider the next size up so everything fits comfortably.

About Gits

Gits is a small village in West Flanders, in the municipality of Hooglede, close to the town of Roeselare. The surrounding area is flat, rural farmland typical of this part of Belgium, so expect a quiet arrival after the motorway. Because it is a small place, it is worth keeping the exact street address or the name of your host or venue to hand, so your driver can take you directly to the door.
