Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Ruiselede

The drive from Charleroi Airport to Ruiselede

Ruiselede lies in West Flanders, and the road trip from Brussels South Charleroi Airport covers 127 km (79 miles). In normal traffic the drive takes about 1 h 23 m. Most of the distance is on motorway, then the route leaves the main roads for the quieter local roads leading into the village.

This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other. The journey crosses a large part of Belgium, so allow extra time on weekday mornings and late afternoons, when motorways around Brussels and Ghent tend to slow down. If you have a fixed appointment or a connection in Ruiselede, plan a comfortable buffer.

• Private Minibus 8 Seats works well for groups with extra bags, sports gear or equipment.
• Private Minibus 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 and 64 Seats cover bigger parties such as school trips, wedding guests, company teams and event delegations.
