    Advantages Advantages Friendly staff, cleanish, selection of shops and restaurants

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Low level security,

    If you put “mal pensa” into altavista’s translation page, and click on Italian to English, it gives you a rather unreasurring “badly it thinks” as it meaning. I know this because at the moment I'm testing MT packages - including Systran which powers Altavista - and having exhausted all the techo-babble test texts, I've moved onto the more interesting world of ops - tranlsating them out of English into a random lang and back again, just to see what happens. Flying to Italy two days after my last A Level exam last year, I didn’t have a choice of airports in ... more

    Advantages Advantages Good food areas

    Disadvantages Disadvantages A long way out of the city

    Milan has 2 airports, Linate and Malpenza. I have recently flown into Malpenza which is about 45 kilometres from Milan on the North Western side. As such we are not exactly in Milan. I suppose having flown from Manchester the same could be said of my destination point. Manchester airport is not exactly in Milan either or Manchester for that matter. What Milan shares with many European airports is that it sits as part of an integrated transport system. The fact that it is outside the city does not matter as buses leave every 20 minutes for the city centre and the train station to Milan ... more

    Advantages Advantages Clean, Loads of restaurants, comfy seats

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No where to smoke

    Imagine being tired, yet handcuffed to a running machine thats on full pelt, welcome to Milan Malpensa. The Airport that doesn\'t accommodate the needs of the smoker, (And the staff almost start laughing when you ask where the smoking area is!) brings to you the largest Duty free shop Ive ever seen in the EU, quite a few restaurants and cafe\'s and several bathrooms (Where the occasional smoker hangs out waiting to be handcuffed and pinned to the floor by the Italian Police) The airport is connected to Milan by the Milano-Varese motorway as well by a dedicated train called \"Malpensa Express\" ... more

    Advantages Advantages Clean

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Far from Milan

    Malpensa is one of the 2 main airports to go to Milan. However, it is situated more than 30 miles away form the centre of Milan. Who should use this airport then? Well, if you are NOT going to Milan, and instead you wish to go to the Alps, Malpensa is closer to the mountains than Linate. If you wish to go to Milan, you can either do so by taxi, whihc will cost you roughly 30-35 quids, or by train, which is cheaper, around 4-5 pounds. Make sure you take one of the white taxis, the ones from Milan, and not the other taxis from cities around Milan, since the Milan taxis are obliged to charge you ... more

    Advantages Advantages New

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Far fom everything

    If you fly to Milano try to avoid this airport! Is awful. It is a new airport but it has everything that reminds you the 70s. Is green, huge. You have to pay for the trolley 2000 lire (so you must have it) or you can use your credit card, than if you are lucky when you put it back it give you the money back. Do they think you are going to stolen the trolley?! To go where the airport is far from everything! So, if you can, fly to Milano Linate. ... more
