Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Oelegem

Meeting Point at Brussels Zaventem Airport

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can head there without searching the terminal.

The Drive from BRU to Oelegem

Oelegem lies 58 km (36 miles) from the airport, and the journey usually takes about 40 minutes. The route runs north from Zaventem towards the province of Antwerp. Allow extra time on weekday mornings and late afternoons, when traffic around Brussels and Antwerp tends to build up. Because this route is booked less often than others, it is worth reserving ahead so your vehicle is arranged in good time.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle depends on the size of your group and how much luggage you carry:

• Private Taxi: for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers, a good fit for solo travellers, couples and small families.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: for up to 8 passengers with extra luggage.
• Private Minibus 16, 24 or 32 Seats: for larger parties, such as wedding guests or business teams.
• Private Minibus 40 or 48 Seats: for big groups travelling together in one vehicle.

Where to Stay Near Oelegem

Oelegem is small, and I cannot name long-established hotels there with confidence. The nearest big city, Antwerp, has well-known options such as the Hilton Antwerp Old Town and the Radisson Blu Astrid Hotel. Both are close to the city centre and the main railway station.
