Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Jumet

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at the 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 head straight there and be on your way.

The Drive from CRL to Jumet

Jumet lies just 4 km (3 miles) from the airport, and the trip usually takes around 8 minutes. It is one of the shortest transfers you can book from CRL, although it is requested less often than the busier routes. Morning and late-afternoon traffic around Charleroi can add a few minutes, so if you have a train, appointment or event waiting at the other end, build in a small buffer. The same applies when you travel in the opposite direction and need to make a check-in deadline at the airport.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the natural fit, with options for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. Larger parties can choose from private minibuses with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats, so a company team, a school trip or a wedding party can all be accommodated without any difficulty. When you book, count luggage as well as people, and choose the next size up if you are carrying bulky items.

About Jumet

Jumet is a district of the city of Charleroi, in the province of Hainaut in Wallonia. It is a mostly residential and industrial area, shaped by the long industrial history of the Charleroi region. Its closeness to the airport makes it a practical base for anyone flying with Charleroi-based services.
