Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Honnelles

The drive from Brussels Airport to Honnelles

The route covers 108 km (68 miles) and typically takes 1 h 19 m. You leave the airport area, cross the Brussels region and continue south-west into the province of Hainaut. The last part of the trip runs on smaller roads through open countryside. Honnelles is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but the transfer is available on request just like any other route, so you can plan it in advance.

The busiest stretch is usually around the Brussels ring road. On weekday mornings and late afternoons, traffic there can add to the journey time. If you have a fixed appointment or a connection to catch at the other end, it is sensible to allow some extra margin. Bad weather can also slow things down.

Choosing the right vehicle

The vehicle should match your group and luggage rather than just the headcount.

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits individual travellers, couples, small families and business trips. Choose the larger option if you have several suitcases.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good fit for larger families or friends travelling together with plenty of luggage.
• Private Minibus 16, 24 and 32 Seats: for wedding parties, club outings, team travel and small corporate groups.
• Private Minibus 40 and 48 Seats: for large groups who want to arrive together in one vehicle.

About Honnelles

Honnelles is a rural municipality in the Walloon province of Hainaut, close to the French border. It is made up of several small villages set in quiet, green countryside, and the river Honnelle gives the area its name. Expect a peaceful setting rather than a busy town centre. Because the villages are spread out, it is helpful to have the exact street address of your destination ready when you book, so the driver can take you straight to the door.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits for you at Java Coffee House in the arrivals area, holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can walk over without searching around the terminal.
