If you land or take off from Milan, pay great attention to this…

As you know, Milan is the Italian capital of fashion. But what you probably don’t know is that Milan has two airports: Linate (LIN) which is located 7 km (4 miles) from downtown Milan and Malpensa (MPX) which is located 50 km (31 miles) from the city center. Both airports share the same website that you can visit to get updated information on schedules (orari) and fees (tariffe).

Now, if you plan to either arrive or depart from Milan, pay great attention to the name of the airport written on the ticket. A friend of mine, who used to work in the airport of Malpensa, told me that too many times she saw passengers missing their flight because they thought it was departing from Malpensa (where they arrived) while it was actually departing from Linate.
