Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Liedekerke

The drive from Zaventem to Liedekerke

The route covers 34 km (22 miles) and normally takes about 29 minutes. Liedekerke lies west of the airport, so the journey leads around the Brussels area before heading into the quieter countryside of Flemish Brabant. Morning and late-afternoon rush hours can slow traffic around the capital, so allow extra time if you have a fixed appointment or a tight schedule. Bad weather can also lengthen the trip.

Choosing the right vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simplest choice, with options for up to 3 or up to 4 passengers. If you have several suitcases or a larger party, the 8-seat minibus gives more space. Bigger groups, such as wedding parties, sports teams or company outings, can use minibuses with 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats. Pick the size by the number of people and the amount of luggage, not just the headcount.

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 go there directly and meet your driver without delay.

About Liedekerke

Liedekerke is a small Flemish municipality in the Denderstreek region, west of Brussels and close to Ninove and Aalst. It is mainly a residential and rural area, with the Dender valley and the surrounding Brabant countryside nearby. A private transfer is a practical way to reach it, since you go straight to your door without planning connections.

Returning to the airport

For departures from Liedekerke, plan the pickup time with the same 29-minute journey in mind, then add a buffer for traffic and for check-in and security at Zaventem. Give the driver the exact pickup address when you book, since small streets and village addresses can be confusing without clear details.
