Taxi Waterloo → Charleroi Airport
Brussels South Charleroi Airport can be reached from Waterloo without using the Brussels ring road, which makes the journey more predictable than a transfer to Zaventem. The fixed fare is €80 VAT included, in a saloon, for up to four passengers.

A journey that avoids the ring road
The N5 heads due south from Waterloo, crosses Genappe and then joins the R3 around Charleroi. About forty kilometres, thirty-five to forty-five minutes. It is a steady route, little affected by Brussels morning traffic jams: a real advantage for early flights.
Low-cost flights and check-in
Airlines operating at Charleroi often ask you to be at the airport two hours before take-off. For a 6:30 am flight, a pick-up in Waterloo around 3:30 am is comfortable. The fixed fare is the same at that hour as in the middle of the day.
The return from Gosselies
When you land, the driver waits for you with a name sign in front of the lifts, at the terminal exit towards the car park. The return to Waterloo costs €90, the extra €10 covering parking and waiting.
The same journey the other way
The return trip to Waterloo is booked exactly like the outbound one. Give us your flight number: if the plane is late, we move the pick-up time without you having to call. At Brussels Airport, the driver waits for you in the arrivals hall with a name sign, in front of WHSmith opposite Quick. At Charleroi, the driver waits with a name sign in front of the lifts, at the terminal exit towards the car park.
Fixed fares include VAT, with no night, weekend or public holiday surcharge. A €10 meet & greet supplement is added only when the ride STARTS at an airport: it covers parking and waiting in the arrivals hall with a name sign. No supplement in the other direction. The van with up to 8 seats costs +€10.
