EUR 7.90 contactless or on a MOBIB card, EUR 8.40 on paper — this direction only; airport-bound, an ordinary EUR 2.40 ticket works. An Airport2City 10-journey card (EUR 52) can be shared, but a first-time visitor also needs the EUR 6.00 MOBIB card, so EUR 58 total.

Ride to Schuman (metro 1 and 5)
27–52 min.
Worth knowing
Every 10 to 20 minutes by day and every 20 in the evening, with the last departures at 23:50, 00:10 and 00:30 — and identically every day of the week, which is unusual and useful.
It is the best option for the European quarter: Schuman in about 27 minutes puts you where neither the cheap bus nor the train leaves you.
Paper costs EUR 0.50 more than contactless or a card.
Seven of you should still buy singles. The 10-journey card only wins from eight once the EUR 6.00 MOBIB card is counted, and from seven if you already have one.
Peak traffic nearly doubles it — 52 minutes to Trone against 38 off-peak.
