Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Putte

The Drive from BRU to Putte

The route from Brussels Zaventem Airport to Putte covers 37 km (23 miles) and typically takes about 30 minutes. It is an occasionally booked route, so your driver will be assigned specifically for your arrival and will not be sharing the car with other passengers.

When to Allow Extra Time

The roads around Brussels and towards Mechelen can slow down during the morning and late afternoon rush hours. Roadworks and bad weather can also add minutes. If you have a fixed appointment in Putte, it is sensible to build in a small buffer on top of the 30-minute estimate. For a departure from Putte to the airport, plan to leave earlier than you think necessary, especially for early-morning flights.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Travellers in a small party can choose a private taxi, available for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. The 1-4 option leaves more room when you are travelling with four people and standard luggage. Larger families and groups can book a private minibus with 8 seats. For bigger parties, such as company teams, wedding guests or club trips, minibuses with 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats are available. Pick the vehicle by the number of passengers and also by how much luggage you carry.

About Putte

Putte is a quiet, largely residential municipality in the province of Antwerp, in the Mechelen area of Flanders. It is a calm base for visiting family or reaching business appointments in the surrounding region, with Mechelen and Antwerp both within easy reach by road. A door-to-door transfer is practical here, as it avoids planning around local connections after a flight.
