Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Waregem

The Drive from BRU to Waregem

The route covers 89 km (56 miles) and typically takes around 58 minutes. You head west from Zaventem across Flanders, so the journey is straightforward and needs no changes. Weekday mornings and late afternoons are the busiest times around Brussels, so it is sensible to allow extra time if you have a tight appointment or a connection at the other end. Waregem is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, which is why a pre-arranged private transfer is often the simplest way to get there without juggling trains and local connections.

Meeting Point at the Airport

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find after you have collected your luggage, so you can walk over and meet your driver without delay.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the natural choice, available for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. Check the passenger limit against your luggage as well as your headcount. Larger parties can book a private minibus with 8 or 16 seats. For wedding guests, sports teams, company groups or school trips, there are minibuses with 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats, so everyone can arrive together in a single vehicle.

Waregem as a Destination

Waregem is a town in West Flanders, in the Leie region of western Belgium. It is known for its horse racing tradition and for the Flanders Field American Cemetery and Memorial, which draws visitors with an interest in First World War history. The town centre is compact and quiet, which suits business trips, family visits and events in the surrounding region.

Where to Stay Near Waregem

I cannot name well-established hotels in Waregem itself with full confidence, so here are two in nearby Kortrijk, a larger city in the same part of West Flanders:

• Hotel Messeyne, a well-known hotel in Kortrijk's centre
• Parkhotel Kortrijk, an established hotel popular with business and leisure guests

Give your driver the exact address of your accommodation when you book, so the drop-off goes smoothly.
