We are Hansea

Bussen LIJN

We have a passion for people and mobility. Today, our mobility network has more than 1,400 experts across our 20 locations in Belgium. Those experts provide daily transport for hundreds of thousands of people, accounting for more than 44 million kilometres a year. To guarantee a strong service, we innovate and invest in optimal, new and sustainable mobility. For example, 100 buses out of our 870 vehicles are already fully emission-free. We have our sights set on the (green) future!

Public transport

Hansea is a key partner of Belgian transport companies De Lijn and TEC. With our 20 departments across Belgium, we provide countless rides across the country every day

Bespoke transport

Bespoke transport is part of the Flemish government's mobility vision of basic accessibility. Hansea is a key partner in the roll-out of bespoke transport, which is increasingly investing in flexibility.

Staff transport

From operational to administrative staff; everyone is welcome on our bus. Our drivers take passengers door-to-door. We do this for people in several sectors all over Belgium.

School transport

Whether it is a school trip to the zoo, a trip to the swimming pool or a ride up to the school gate, getting children safely through the school year is our top priority. With our years of experience and extensive range, we always find a tailor-made solution.

Coach services

At Hansea, your holiday starts as soon as the bus pulls up. Our professional coach drivers provide your safe and comfortable transport throughout the country and Europe. For car and air travel, you can always visit our travel agency in Herentals.
