Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Opwijk

The drive from Charleroi Airport to Opwijk

The route covers 75 km (47 miles) and typically takes 1 h 3 m. Charleroi lies south of Brussels and Opwijk lies north-west of the capital, so the journey runs across the Brussels region. Traffic around the ring road is the main variable. On weekday mornings and late afternoons it is sensible to allow extra time, especially if you have a fixed appointment or a connecting booking at the other end.

This is a route that is booked less often than the big city transfers. It is available on request just like any other, and your driver will plan the trip around your landing time.

Choosing the right vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the natural choice. It is offered for 1-3 passengers or for 1-4 passengers, depending on how much luggage you carry and how much space you want.

For bigger parties there is a range of private minibuses:

• 8 seats for up to 8 passengers
• 16 and 24 seats for mid-sized groups such as sports teams or wedding parties
• 32, 40, 48, 56 and 64 seats for company events, school trips and large celebrations

If you travel with bulky luggage, such as golf bags, prams or musical instruments, mention it when booking so the right vehicle is assigned.

Opwijk as a destination

Opwijk is a municipality in the province of Flemish Brabant, in the Dutch-speaking part of Belgium. It sits between Brussels and Dendermonde in a calm, mostly residential and rural setting. Most visitors come to see family, attend an event or do business in the surrounding area. A door-to-door transfer is practical here, because you are taken straight to your address instead of needing to arrange the last stretch yourself.

Please give the full street address when booking, so the driver can check the exact drop-off point in advance.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at the Starbucks with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage.
