Brussels Airport (Zaventem)
Brussels Airport sits about twenty minutes from the city centre in clear traffic — but the ring road can easily double that at peak times.
Airport transfers
Ten airports reachable by road from Brussels: both Belgian airports and the main French, Dutch, Luxembourgish and German hubs. Door-to-door pick-up, drop-off in front of the terminal.
Belgium
Zaventem and Charleroi answer very different needs: proximity and a complete network on one side, low-cost flights and night-time hours on the other.
Brussels Airport sits about twenty minutes from the city centre in clear traffic — but the ring road can easily double that at peak times.
Charleroi is roughly an hour from Brussels, and most low-cost flights leaving from it depart early.

When the route does not exist from Belgium, or requires a stopover, reaching a neighbouring hub by road often replaces an entire connection.

The drive is not the only variable. At Zaventem a direct rail link exists, and a private transfer is justified mainly by the hour, the group or the luggage. At Charleroi the problem is the departure time: most flights leave before public transport becomes usable.
For foreign airports the question becomes one of connections: reaching Roissy or Schiphol by road from Brussels frequently replaces a whole stopover, luggage included.
Each page above sets out those constraints for the airport concerned: drop-off point, handling of terminals, available alternatives and when they suffice.
It is the single most useful detail in your enquiry. Outbound, it lets us calculate the pick-up time from the real departure and the type of flight. Inbound, it lets us align the meeting with the actual landing — you do not wait, and you do not pay for waiting caused by a delay.
For airports with several terminals — Roissy, Orly, Düsseldorf, Cologne Bonn — it also determines the exact drop-off point.
