Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Saint-Ghislain

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find after you have collected your luggage, so you can walk straight there once you are through baggage reclaim.

The Drive to Saint-Ghislain

The route from Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Saint-Ghislain covers 88 km (55 miles) and typically takes 1 h 1 m. That estimate assumes normal traffic. The Brussels ring road is the main variable, since weekday morning and late-afternoon rush hours, roadworks or poor weather can all add time. If you have a tight appointment or onward connection, build in a buffer.

This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other. A door-to-door transfer also spares you from changing vehicles with heavy luggage after a long flight.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle you need depends mostly on group size and luggage.

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, families and small business groups.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good choice for larger families or friends travelling with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16, 24 or 32 Seats: practical for teams, school or club groups and wedding parties.
• Private Minibus 40 or 48 Seats: for large delegations, tour groups and organised events.

If you are unsure, choose the larger option when you have oversized luggage such as sports equipment or musical instruments.
