Terminals:
Milan Malpensa terminal 1 was a brand new airport
at the start of the new millenium. Milan is the
business capital of Italy. But Milan has always
been competing with Rome to be the hub of
Alitalia. Milan Malpense terminal 2 is used by low
cost airlines like Ryanair and Easyjet in 2008.
Bus: Both
terminals have a regular direct busservice with
Milan central railwaystation in 2008.
Location:
This airport is loacated 48 km or 30 miles from
downtown Milan. Milan Malpensa is loacated too far
from Milan with no fast connection to the city
center, and there is still the Milan Linate
airport nearly Milan city center, which is
preferred by passengers and airlines for short
haul flights. But, by missing these short haul
flights at Malpensa airport, Alitalia was unable
to make a long-haul hub there, as the feeder
traffic from the short haul is missing. So in 2012
you will hardly find any long haul Alitalia
flights in Milan. They all are concentrated on
their Rome
FCO hub
Passengers:
With just over 19 million passengers in 2011 the
airport isn't among the largest in Europe
History:
The airport openend in the year 2000, but the old
airport Linate remained popular afterwards for
intra-european flights as that airport is loacted
much more near the city center.
Milan: is the second
largest city of Italy and it's economical capital.
