Leuven is a city of students, researchers and commuters, with people from all over the world working at the university, the hospital or one of the tech companies. Around it lies the Hageland, with its rolling hills, vineyards and small towns such as Aarschot, Diest and Tienen. What they all have in common: Brussels Airport is fairly close, but not quite close enough to walk there with your suitcases.

With GateRide, you get in right outside your own door, whether that is a student room on Naamsestraat, a terraced house in Kessel-Lo or a farmhouse near Glabbeek. Your driver loads your luggage and takes you all the way to the departures hall, with no changes. The price is fixed in advance for your town, so traffic on the E40 or the E314 makes no difference to you. No pickup surcharge, no meter: you pay cash on the day of the ride.

On the Brussels–Liège axis: to Brussels, Liège and Germany

The E40 runs right through the region, and it largely decides which airport you choose. Heading west, you are quickly at Brussels Airport from Leuven, Herent or Kortenberg. From Aarschot and Diest, your driver joins the E40 via the E314; from Tienen and Landen, it is the E40 all the way. Do bear in mind the morning rush towards Brussels, which starts early.

Heading east, the same E40 takes you past Liège to Aachen, making Cologne Bonn and Düsseldorf easy options if you fly with a German airline. Live in Tienen, Landen or Zoutleeuw? Liège Airport is often an underrated choice for holiday flights. Charleroi is reached via the Brussels Ring heading south. And from Diest and the north of the Hageland, Eindhoven is an option too. The price table shows the fixed fare from your town to each airport.

For students, researchers and their visitors

KU Leuven, UZ Leuven and the research centres attract many international students and expats. Are your parents flying in for a graduation, or are you arriving with your whole life packed into two suitcases? A driver who meets you in the arrivals hall and drops you at your room or flat makes it all much easier. The website is available in English, French and Dutch, so your visitors can book for themselves.

Every ride is driven by the owner himself. Your request is reviewed personally and confirmed by email. Waiting time after landing is included in the price; if you are delayed, just let your driver know by phone or WhatsApp.

Frequently asked questions

Can the driver pick me up in Leuven city centre, despite the circulation plan?

Yes. A baby seat, child seat or booster seat is free of charge, subject to availability. Just select it when you book.

Isn’t a taxi from Leuven to Brussels Airport a bit much?
