Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Nieuwkerken-Waas

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Nieuwkerken-Waas

The route covers 63 km (40 miles) and normally takes around 47 minutes by road. Most of the journey is on motorway, so the time is fairly predictable outside peak hours. Traffic around Brussels can slow things down on weekday mornings and late afternoons, and bad weather can have the same effect. If you have a fixed appointment or a connection to make, it is sensible to add a buffer. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request just like any other, so your driver will plan it for your specific pickup time.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle depends on how many people are travelling and how much luggage you have.

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, and small families. Choose the four-passenger option if you want a little more room.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good fit for larger families or small groups with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 Seats: intended for tour groups, teams, wedding parties, and company events. Pick the size that matches your group so everyone travels together in one vehicle.

If you are close to a vehicle's passenger limit and carrying a lot of luggage, choose the next size up.

About Nieuwkerken-Waas

Nieuwkerken-Waas is a small village in the Waasland region of East Flanders, part of the municipality of Stekene. The surroundings are flat, green, and rural, typical of this part of Belgium. It is a quiet place, so having a private transfer arranged in advance is a practical way to get there directly from the airport. Please give your driver the full street address when booking so the drop-off is exact.

Meeting Point

Your driver will wait at Java Coffee House holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find after you have collected your luggage. Head there once you are through baggage reclaim and look for your name on the sign.
