Malpensa airport to Milan City Center

As mentioned before, Malpensa airport has two passenger terminals. What’s important to note is that they are located far apart from each other, so it’s better to check the terminal for your flight. just in case, the two terminals are linked by free airport shuttle buses that run every 7 minutes. Of course, the taxi is the most convenient and straightforward mode of transportation, but it is also costly. The train and the bus are the two other main public transportation options.
