Making a Flight Connection from Linate to Malpensa Airport

Milan Linate Airport (LIN) sits on the eastern side of Milan, whereas Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP) is located well to the west of the city. Although both airports serve Milan, they are not neighbouring terminals: transferring between them involves a cross-city road journey of approximately 63 km.

This distinction is especially important when an itinerary arrives at Linate but the next flight leaves from Malpensa. A private airport taxi can collect you after landing at LIN and continue directly towards MXP, avoiding the need to travel into central Milan, change transport with luggage and then begin a second airport journey.

Malpensa has separate passenger terminals, so include the correct onward flight when arranging your transfer. For a same-day airport change, leave a comfortable margin beyond the usual 1-hour drive for baggage reclaim at Linate, traffic across Milan and the check-in, security and passport-control procedures that may apply before departure from MXP.
