A taxi between central Brussels and the airport, no guesswork

Central Brussels and Zaventem airport are about fourteen kilometres apart. On a map that looks short. In practice it depends on the hour: half an hour on the ring in the morning, a little less off-peak, more if an accident closes a lane on the E40. Our brussels city centre airport taxi service picks you up at your address and drops you at the airport, with the price confirmed before you go.

Our job is to take the uncertainty out. You give us the address, the date and the flight time, we work out a pick-up time with a sensible margin, and the driver is waiting downstairs. No taxi queue, no improvising with suitcases.

We drive from Zaventem all year round and we know the quirks of the centre: pedestrian streets around the Grand-Place, limited stopping near Midi station, recurring roadworks on the inner ring. Those details are what save or cost ten minutes.

Which Brussels neighbourhoods we pick up from

The short answer: anywhere in the Brussels region. These are the starting points we see most.

Grand-Place, Sainte-Catherine and the Marolles

Hotels in the historic centre are often on narrow or pedestrian streets. We agree a pick-up point a car can reach, sometimes on the corner rather than at the door, and we tell you in advance.

Central, North and Midi stations

Many travellers arrive by train, sleep in town and leave early. We can meet you right outside the station with your luggage, so you do not drag suitcases through the corridors.

European Quarter, Ixelles, Saint-Gilles, Schaerbeek

For business trips to the institutions or offices, pick-up is at the exact address at the agreed time. We can confirm the day before if you like.

How long to allow, and when to leave

Allow roughly twenty to thirty minutes on the road in normal conditions. Add time at rush hour, Monday to Friday, between seven and nine in the morning and in the late afternoon.

For a long-haul flight, plan to be at the airport about three hours before departure. For a European flight, two hours is usually enough. We start from those benchmarks and then add a margin.
