Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Messancy

The drive from Charleroi to Messancy

The route covers 171 km (107 miles) and typically takes 1 h 44 m by road. It runs south-east across Wallonia towards the border region near Arlon, so you stay in one vehicle from the terminal to your door with no transfers on the way. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other. Heavy traffic, bad weather or roadworks can lengthen any long drive, so allow some extra time if you have a fixed appointment, a train or a connection to catch in Messancy.

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, so choose the one that matches your party and luggage. If your group is bigger, private minibuses are available with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. Pick the size that matches your headcount and the amount of luggage you are bringing, as a trip of nearly two hours is far more comfortable with some spare room.

Messancy as a destination

Messancy is a municipality in the province of Luxembourg, in the south-east corner of Belgium. It lies close to the town of Arlon and near the borders with the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and France. Many travellers come here for family visits, for work in the surrounding border region, or as a base for trips across the frontier. Please have the full street address ready when booking so the driver can take you directly to the right door.
