Ghent is a city where you get around faster by bike than by car – which is great, until you have to get to the station with two suitcases and a child seat. Since the circulation plan was introduced, the city centre has been divided into sectors and you can no longer drive straight through it. Taking your own car to the airport also means paying for parking for your entire trip.

With GateRide, you book a ride at a fixed price for your town. Your driver comes to you, knows the way around the sectors and the car-free centre, loads your luggage and takes you all the way to the departures hall, with no changes. Heavy traffic on the E40 or a tailback on the R4? The price stays the same. No meter, no pickup surcharge and no extra charge for luggage.

From Ghent to Brussels Airport, Charleroi, Schiphol and Eindhoven

Most people in Ghent fly from Brussels Airport (Zaventem). The route is straightforward: the E40 towards Brussels, then the Ring. But anyone who knows the E40 knows it can back up badly around Aalst and Groot-Bijgaarden in the morning rush. Your driver builds in plenty of margin, and you choose the pickup time that suits your flight.

Flying low-cost from Charleroi? That is a longer drive, skirting Brussels to the south. For Schiphol and Eindhoven, the route follows the E17 towards Antwerp before heading north or east. Liège, Düsseldorf and Cologne Bonn are possible too. The price table on this page shows the fixed fare from your town to each airport.

Circulation plan, LEZ and car-free centre: what it means for you

Under the circulation plan, any car going from one sector to another has to use the R40 inner ring road. That makes no difference to your price: it depends only on your town, not on the route your driver has to take. Nor do you need to worry about the city-centre low-emission zone, as your own car stays at home.

Live right in the car-free zone, near the Korenmarkt, the Graslei or the Veldstraat? Then agree a meeting point at the edge of the zone. Your driver can stop there easily and you will be on your way in no time. Just mention in your request which corner or square suits you best.

Frequently asked questions

Airport transfers in Ghent

Can the driver pick me up in Ghent’s car-free centre?

It is best to agree a meeting point at the edge of the car-free zone, close to your address. Mention it in your request and your driver will know exactly where to find you.

Does the circulation plan make the ride more expensive?

No. The price is fixed per town and per airport. Whether your driver takes the R40 or the R4 has no effect on what you pay.

Which airport should I choose from Ghent?

For most destinations, Brussels Airport is the closest. Low-cost flights often leave from Charleroi, and Schiphol can be worth a look for some scheduled flights. The price table shows the fixed fare from your town to each airport.

Do you also cover Deinze, Eeklo and Aalter?

Book a ride ‘From the airport’ and enter your flight number. Your driver waits for you in the arrivals hall; waiting time is included in the price. If your flight is delayed, let your driver know by phone or WhatsApp.
