Booking Your Brussels Airport Taxi
Booking a taxi from Brussels Airport is easy and convenient. We’ll cover the main ways to reserve your ride, including apps, online services, and local taxi companies.
How to Book a Taxi
We can book an airport taxi in several ways. The most common method is using a smartphone app. Many taxi services have their own apps for quick booking. We can also call a taxi company directly. Some hotels offer airport transfer services too.
For those who prefer planning ahead, we can book online through taxi company websites. This option lets us schedule a pickup time in advance. It’s helpful for early morning flights or busy travel days.
At the airport, we’ll find taxi stands outside the arrivals area. These offer on-the-spot service without booking ahead. Just look for the clearly marked taxi queue.
Taxi Apps and Online Services
Taxi apps make booking simple and fast. Popular options include Uber and FREE NOW (formerly Mytaxi). These apps let us track our driver’s location and pay through our phones.
We can also use Brussels-specific apps like Victor Cab or Taxis Verts. These connect us to local taxi services. Many work just like larger ride-sharing apps.
For online booking, most taxi companies have websites. We can enter our trip details and get a price estimate. Some sites offer real-time booking, while others send confirmation later.
Remember to check reviews and ratings before choosing an app or online service. This helps ensure a reliable ride.

When choosing a company, we should consider factors like price, vehicle type, and customer reviews. It’s a good idea to compare a few options before booking.
Types of Airport Transfer Services
Brussels Airport offers several transfer options to suit different needs and budgets. We’ll explore the main choices available for getting to and from the airport.
Private Transfer Options
Private transfers provide a direct and comfortable way to travel. Taxis are readily available at the airport, offering door-to-door service. We find that many travelers prefer this option for its convenience.
Pre-booked private cars are another popular choice. These services often include meet-and-greet at the terminal. Drivers are usually professional and know the best routes.
For groups or families, minibuses can be a cost-effective solution. They offer more space for luggage and passengers. Booking in advance is recommended for these services.
Airport Shuttle and Shared Taxis
Shuttle services run on fixed routes between the airport and major destinations. They’re a budget-friendly option for solo travelers or couples.
Shared taxis are a middle ground between private and shuttle services. Passengers heading in the same direction share the ride, splitting the cost.
Both options may involve stops along the way. This can increase travel time but reduces the price per person.
Luxury Services
For those seeking a premium experience, luxury transfer services are available. Limousines are the top choice for comfort and style.
These services often include extras like refreshments and Wi-Fi. Chauffeurs are typically highly trained and provide a professional demeanor.
Some companies offer high-end SUVs or executive sedans as alternatives to traditional limos. These vehicles blend luxury with a more subtle appearance.
Booking luxury transfers usually comes with perks like flight monitoring and flexible pickup times. We’ve found that business travelers often prefer these services for their reliability and comfort.
