Brussels International Airport - state run train
from airport to Brussels, it is most convenient to take fast and cheap train. From the arrival hall, take the elevator to the underground, there is the national railway station express, which runs about every 15 minutes. It takes 17 minutes to get to the north station, 21 minutes to the central station and 24 minutes to get to the south station. The train stops in the order of North Station, central station and south station, so it is better to get off when it is close to the destination. If you go to the tourist information office, central station is more convenient. The platform of central station is complex, so we should pay more attention to it, and try to determine the location of the platform when we get off, so that we don't have to worry when we go from central station to the airport
