Travel and Accommodation
Travel Insurance
All participants are insured for third-party liability and accidents during summer or winter school activities. Additional insurances (e.g., health and travel), as well as travel costs, are the participant's own responsibility.
Where to Stay
Antwerp has many different accommodation options, ranging from student rooms to youth hostels to classic hotels. Most summer or winter schools organized at Antwerp Summer or Winter University take place at the Stadscampus of the University of Antwerp. This campus is located in the so-called "university area" close to the city centre. Participants are provided with a list of housing options in different price categories and at different locations but are free to choose their accommodation.
Getting There
Antwerp is located in the centre of Belgium and is easily accessible by:
- Plane: The international airport of Brussels (Zaventem) is the most frequently used gateway to Antwerp, but you might also want to consider the low-cost airport of Brussels South (Charleroi).
- Train: International railway lines link Brussels and Antwerp to several other major European cities.
- Bus: Eurolines and Flixbus buses also frequent the city centre of Antwerp, which might be the cheapest option to get there.
