Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Melden

The drive from Charleroi Airport to Melden

The transfer covers 116 km (73 miles) and typically takes 1 h 21 m. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other, and your driver takes you directly to the address in Melden without any changes along the way. Allow some extra time if you travel during morning or evening rush hours, or in poor weather, as the journey crosses a good part of Belgium and traffic can slow things down. If you have a fixed appointment or a connection at the other end, plan a comfortable buffer.

Choosing the right vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the natural choice: one version seats 1-3 passengers, another 1-4 passengers. If you travel with several suitcases, pick the vehicle with more space rather than the minimum seat count. For bigger parties such as wedding guests, school trips or company teams, private minibuses are available with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. Just tell us the number of passengers and the amount of luggage when you book, and we will match the vehicle to your group.

About Melden

Melden is a small village that belongs to the municipality of Oudenaarde in East Flanders. It lies in a rural, green setting near the river Scheldt, in the part of Belgium known for the Flemish Ardennes and its cycling tradition. Expect quiet streets rather than big-city bustle. Because it is a small place, it helps to give your driver the exact street address or a clear pin on the map, so the final stretch goes smoothly. Oudenaarde, a short distance away, is the nearest larger town with shops, restaurants and a historic centre.
