Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Oordegem

The drive from Brussels Airport to Oordegem

Oordegem lies 49 km (31 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the drive typically takes around 37 minutes. The route heads west out of the Brussels area into East Flanders, so the busiest stretch is usually the first part around the capital. Morning and late-afternoon rush hours can slow things down, as can bad weather. If you have a tight onward commitment, such as a business meeting or a event, it is sensible to allow some extra time. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other.

Choosing the right vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simplest choice: one option seats 1-3 passengers and another seats 1-4. Larger parties can choose a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats, so a wedding party, a sports team or a company group can arrive together in one vehicle. When you book, count everyone in the group, and consider how much luggage you have, as a full set of suitcases can take up more room than the seat count suggests.
