Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Sainte-Cécile

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Sainte-Cécile

This is a long-distance transfer of 720 km (448 miles), with a typical driving time of 7 h 2 m. It is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other, so your driver can plan the journey properly in advance. A trip of this length is easier in one private vehicle than with several connections and luggage in tow.

The stated time is a typical figure without stops. Heavy traffic around Brussels at rush hour, roadworks, bad weather or a break for coffee and fuel can all add to it. If you have a fixed appointment, a check-in time or an onward connection at the end of the trip, build in a generous buffer instead of planning to the minute.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Seven hours on the road is much more comfortable with enough space, so pick the vehicle by luggage as well as by headcount.

• Private Taxi (1-3 passengers) or (1-4 passengers): suited to solo travellers, couples, small families and business travellers. Choose the larger one if everyone has a big suitcase.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good fit for larger families or small groups with plenty of luggage.
• Private Minibus 16 and 24 Seats: for friends, clubs, wedding parties and mid-sized teams.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats: for tour groups, school trips, company events and other large parties travelling together.

About Sainte-Cécile

Sainte-Cécile is a small place in Belgium, and not a destination with a big public transport network. A private transfer takes you to the door instead of leaving you to work out the last stretch. Because the name is shared by more than one locality, send your driver the full street address or a precise pin for your accommodation or meeting spot when you book. After such a long drive, it also helps to have a contact number for your host or venue in case the final approach is hard to find.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House inside Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU), 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.
