Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Wannegem

The drive from Brussels Airport to Wannegem

The route covers 87 km (54 miles) and usually takes around 59 minutes. You leave the Zaventem area, pass the Brussels ring and continue west into East Flanders, where the landscape turns from motorway and suburbs to farmland and small villages. Wannegem is not a route we see every day, but it is available on request like any other, and the booking works the same way as for busier destinations.

The quoted time assumes normal traffic. Weekday morning and late-afternoon peaks around Brussels and the approaches to Ghent can add noticeably to the journey, so allow extra time if you need to reach an appointment or a ceremony on arrival. In the opposite direction, plan a generous buffer before your flight rather than cutting it fine.

Choosing the right vehicle

The vehicle should match your group and luggage rather than just the headcount.

• Private Taxi (1-3 passengers) suits solo travellers, couples and small families with standard luggage.
• Private Taxi (1-4 passengers) gives a fourth seat, which works best when bags are light.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats is the practical choice for larger families or groups with several suitcases.
• Private Minibus 16, 24, 32, 40 and 48 Seats cover wedding parties, company groups, sports teams and organised tours travelling together in one vehicle.

If you are close to the limit of a vehicle, choose the next size up so everyone has room for their luggage.

About Wannegem

Wannegem, better known as Wannegem-Lede, is a small village in the Kruisem area of East Flanders. It is a quiet, rural place rather than a tourist centre, with green surroundings that appeal to visitors seeking calm, cycling routes or family visits. Because services are limited, it helps to give your driver the exact street address or a clear landmark when booking, so the final stretch goes smoothly even in a village with narrow roads.
