Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Fontaine-l’Eveque

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 walk over and meet your driver without searching the terminal.

The Drive to Fontaine-l’Eveque

The route covers 24 km (15 miles) and normally takes around 18 minutes. Fontaine-l’Eveque lies close to Charleroi, so the journey is short compared with most airport transfers in Belgium. Traffic around the Charleroi area can slow things down during the morning and late-afternoon rush hours. If you have a fixed appointment or a connection to catch, add a little buffer to the usual driving time. Roadworks and bad weather can also add minutes, particularly in winter.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle depends mainly on how many people and how much luggage you are bringing:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, families and small business groups.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good choice for a group of friends, an extended family or colleagues travelling with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16 to 64 Seats: available in steps of eight seats (16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 and 64) for tour groups, school trips, sports teams, wedding parties and company events.

If you are unsure which size to book, count your passengers and your large suitcases. Choosing the next size up gives everyone more room.
