Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Sleihage

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Sleihage

The transfer covers 132 km (83 miles) and typically takes 1 h 32 m. That is a substantial trip, so it suits travellers who want to go straight from the arrivals hall to their door without working out connections after a flight. Sleihage is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but the route is available on request just like any other, and the journey is made in a single private vehicle.

Travel time is an estimate for normal conditions. Brussels is known for heavy traffic around the ring road during the morning and late-afternoon rush hours, and bad weather can slow things down further. If you have a fixed appointment or a connecting booking at the other end, it is sensible to allow some extra margin.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Smaller groups can choose between a private taxi for 1-3 passengers or one for 1-4 passengers. The second option gives a little more room for a family or for a group travelling with several suitcases.

Larger parties are covered by the minibus range:

• 8 seats for groups of up to 8 passengers
• 16 seats for up to 16 passengers
• 24 seats for up to 24 passengers
• 32 seats for up to 32 passengers
• 40 seats for up to 40 passengers
• 48 seats for up to 48 passengers

For a long ride of around an hour and a half, it is worth picking a vehicle with a little spare capacity, particularly if your group is travelling with bulky luggage.

About Sleihage

Sleihage is a small place in Belgium, so expect a quiet setting rather than a busy urban centre. Because of its size, it is a good idea to have the full street address or a precise drop-off point ready when you book, so the driver can take you directly to the right spot.
