How does a private shuttle to Brussels Airport work?

A private shuttle is a vehicle booked for you alone or for your group. It picks you up at the address you choose and goes straight to the airport, without stops and without a line timetable. Our brussels airport shuttle service picks you up at your address and drops you at the airport, with the price confirmed before you go.

People often compare it with trains and buses. Each has its uses, and no choice is wrong: it depends on how many of you there are, the luggage and your flight time.

Our private shuttle runs day and night. You know the price when you book.

Private shuttle, train or bus: a comparison

The train

Fast from Brussels-Nord, Central and Midi with frequent departures during the day. Good for light travellers near a station. Check the times on the SNCB/NMBS site.

The bus

Several lines serve the airport, including STIB lines 12 and 21, night bus N12 and De Lijn lines such as 272 and 471. Cheap, but with stops and reduced service at night.

The private shuttle

The driver comes to you, loads the bags and drops you at the terminal. Families, groups, early flyers and late arrivals tend to choose it.

Who is the shuttle most useful for?

For four people or more, a shuttle to the airport is often less hassle than four tickets and a change at the station. It also avoids connections with children or bulky luggage.

Business travellers like it for a simple reason: they can work during the ride.

Landing late? The driver is at the exit of the arrivals hall when trains get scarce. Shuttle price, times, booking and driver: all are set up when you book, with no itinerary to work out.
