Prepare your Mechelen journey brief
- Arrival: If your flight uses Brussels Airport (BRU) or Antwerp International Airport (Deurne) (ANR), give the airport on your ticket, flight number and arrival date. Add the full Mechelen hotel or venue address; these airport references do not establish a road route or a collection point.
- An airport arrival with several stops: If your flight is booked at Brussels Airport (BRU), use Brussels arrival planning and Antwerp 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.
- 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 Mechelen journey
How do BRU and ANR compare for a Mechelen transfer?
Brussels Airport (BRU) is about 14 km from the Mechelen map reference in a straight line; Antwerp International Airport (Deurne) (ANR) is about 18 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 Mechelen?
List each airport, flight number, arrival time and passenger count separately. If one group lands at BRU and another at ANR, 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 Brussels?
Use Brussels as the actual destination rather than entering only Mechelen as the wider area. Add the hotel or venue address and luggage count so the quote covers the requested end point.
How do the Brussels and Antwerp stops compare from Mechelen?
From the Mechelen geographic reference, Brussels is approximately 21.5 km away in a straight line and Antwerp is 22.3 km away. Brussels is listed in Brussels Capital; Antwerp is listed in Flanders. The first two distances are close, so they give little basis for choosing the visit order. Use your actual addresses and appointment times. These are map measurements, not driving distances; a feasible route and vehicle allocation must be assessed in the quotation.
