Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Lille (Belgium)

The drive from Charleroi Airport to Lille

The journey covers 133 km (83 miles) and typically takes 1 h 31 m by road. It is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other transfer, so a driver is arranged around your arrival time. Because the trip is a single door-to-door ride, you avoid train changes and timetable planning altogether.

Allow some extra time if you travel during weekday rush hours, when traffic around Charleroi and on the busier motorway sections can slow things down. Rain, roadworks and holiday weekends can also stretch the usual driving time, so it is wise not to schedule a tight appointment right after landing.

Which vehicle fits your group

The vehicle you choose depends mainly on the number of passengers and the amount of luggage you bring:

• Private Taxi for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers: suited to solo travellers, couples and families.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a comfortable choice for a group of friends, colleagues or an extended family with suitcases.
• Private Minibus 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 and 64 Seats: for tour groups, teams, school trips and events, matched to your exact headcount.

If you are travelling with bulky luggage, sports equipment or a stroller, mention it when you book so the right vehicle is assigned.

About Lille (Belgium)

Lille in Belgium is a small municipality in the province of Antwerp, in the Flemish Kempen region. The surroundings are quiet and largely rural, with fields, woodland and small villages rather than big-city sights. It should not be confused with the much larger French city of the same name, so check that your address is in the Belgian Lille before you book. Giving your driver the full street address and house number makes the final stretch of the trip easier.

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 go straight there and meet your driver without any searching.
