Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Rekkem

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Rekkem

Rekkem lies 111 km (69 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the journey usually takes around 1 h 16 m. The route leads west across Flanders towards the French border. Rekkem is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but the transfer is available on request like any other.

Allow extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush hour, since traffic around Brussels and on the western motorways can slow things down. Heavy rain or roadworks can also add minutes, so it is wise not to schedule a tight appointment right after arrival.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle depends on your group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, families and small groups with standard luggage.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a comfortable option for larger families or colleagues travelling together.
• Private Minibus 16, 24 or 32 Seats: practical for wedding parties, sports teams and company groups.
• Private Minibus 40 or 48 Seats: for large delegations, school trips and event guests who want to arrive together.

Rekkem as a Destination

Rekkem is a village in West Flanders and part of the municipality of Menen. It sits right on the French border, next to the French town of Halluin. The surroundings are mostly quiet and residential, which makes the area a calm base for visiting family or doing business in the Lys region.

Where to Stay Nearby

Rekkem itself is small, so visitors often stay in the nearby city of Kortrijk. Well-known options there include:

• Parkhotel Kortrijk
• Hotel Messeyne
• Ibis Kortrijk Centrum
