Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Melveren

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Melveren

The route covers 63 km (40 miles) and typically takes around 53 minutes by road. You leave the Brussels airport area heading east, so the journey is a straightforward run into the province of Limburg. Traffic around Brussels and Leuven can build up during the weekday morning and late-afternoon rush hours, and bad weather can slow things down too. If you have a fixed appointment or a connection to make, it is sensible to add a buffer to the usual driving time.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Melveren is a less frequently booked destination, but the transfer is available on request just like any other route. For individual travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simplest option, with versions for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. Larger parties can choose a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats, which suits wedding guests, company groups, sports teams and organised tours travelling together. Pick the size by the number of people in your party, and remember to count everyone who will be riding along.
