Prepare your Ghent journey brief

  1. Arrival: If your flight uses Antwerp International Airport (Deurne) (ANR) or Brussels Airport (BRU), give the airport on your ticket, flight number and arrival date. Add the full Ghent hotel or venue address; these airport references do not establish a road route or a collection point.
  2. An airport arrival with several stops: If your flight is booked at Antwerp International Airport (Deurne) (ANR), use Lokeren arrival planning and Aalst arrival planning for the separate hotel or venue addresses. Say whether the enquiry covers one continuous itinerary or individual local transfers, with passengers and bags for each leg.
  3. Group and return: Include passengers, luggage and mobility needs. Put any return date, pickup time and departure flight or train in the message field.

Planning your Ghent journey

How do ANR and BRU compare for a Ghent transfer?

Antwerp International Airport (Deurne) (ANR) is about 54 km from the Ghent map reference in a straight line; Brussels Airport (BRU) is about 56 km. These figures are not road distances. Base the enquiry on the booked flight and actual destination address; road access and collection arrangements are checked separately.

Can one enquiry cover groups landing at different airports near Ghent?

List each airport, flight number, arrival time and passenger count separately. If one group lands at ANR and another at BRU, say whether they need separate vehicles or whether you want a combined itinerary assessed. Do not assume a single vehicle can meet both schedules.

What happens if the destination after landing is Lokeren?

Use Lokeren as the actual destination rather than entering only Ghent as the wider area. Add the hotel or venue address and luggage count so the quote covers the requested end point.

How do the Lokeren and Aalst stops compare from Ghent?

From the Ghent geographic reference, Lokeren is approximately 20.2 km away in a straight line and Aalst is 25.7 km away. A further destination reference is Dendermonde, approximately 27.0 km from Ghent. Compare the time needed at each visit before choosing the pickup order. These are map measurements, not driving distances; a feasible route and vehicle allocation must be assessed in the quotation.

Choose transport for your Ghent itinerary

Compare coach hire with a driver with minibus hire for a smaller group. Passenger numbers, bags and collection access determine the suitable option; confirm availability and inclusions for your dates.

For flight arrivals, use the group airport pickup guide to set out the terminal, meeting point and waiting arrangements. For the price discussion, the coach hire cost guide explains questions about waiting time, parking and additional stops.
