arriver

Si j' étais partie ce matin à dix heures moins le quart, je serais arrivée à Bruxelles sept heures plus tard. Aujourd' hui, j' aurais même pu ne jamais arriver car, exceptionnellement, des grèves se sont ajoutées au problème.

Had I left at quarter to ten this morning, I would have arrived in Brussels seven hours later, although today, as it happens, I might not have arrived at all for there is strike action going on too.

Comment y arriver?

How to achieve this goal?
