Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Cheratte

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Starbucks inside Brussels South Charleroi Airport, holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can go straight there and meet your driver without searching the terminal.

The Drive from Charleroi to Cheratte

The route covers 97 km (60 miles) and typically takes 1 h 1 m. It runs east across Wallonia towards the Liège area, so the travel time is fairly steady outside the busiest hours. Allow some extra time if you travel during the weekday morning or late afternoon rush, or in poor weather, especially when you have to reach an appointment or a connection soon after arrival. Because the transfer is booked privately, your driver can see when your flight lands and keep the pickup relaxed if you are delayed at baggage reclaim.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simplest option. It is available for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers, depending on how much luggage you carry. Groups can choose from private minibuses with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats, which suits teams, wedding parties, school trips or company events heading to the area. If you are unsure which size fits, think about suitcases as well as people: bulky bags, sports equipment or pushchairs take up space, and it is better to book one size up.

About Cheratte

Cheratte is a village in the municipality of Visé, in the province of Liège, on the banks of the Meuse. It is mainly a residential area, with the city of Liège to the south-west and the Dutch border not far to the north-east. Visitors usually come to see family, to work in the surrounding region, or as a base for exploring the Meuse valley. For the drop-off, have the exact street address ready when you book, since house numbers in small villages can be hard to spot, and your driver will take you to the door.
