Car Hire in Milano Airport - Mini guide to Milano Airport

Milan has two airports, Malpensa Airport and the closer Linate. Milano Airport commonly refers to Milan Malpensa Airport, which is the main airport serving the northern Italian centre and has better options for cheap car hire at Milano Airport.

Milano Airport is about an hour northwest of town by hire car and comes with two terminals, with Terminal 1 receiving flights from numerous cities in Europe, the US, Japan, and the Middle East. Terminal 1 is known as Malpensa Ovest and has the best car hire at Milano Airport options.

Those coming from European cities with easyJet will fly to Terminal 2, or Malpensa Nord, which is connected to Terminal 1 by shuttle bus regularly. Airport facilities include car rental at Milano Airport as well as ATMs, currency exchange and shops and eateries.

Getting to central Milano from Milano Airport is by way of the SS336 east and the A8 Autostrada dei Laghi motorway south; a 45kms journey by car hire at Milano Airport. Milano Airport is also well positioned for skipping Milano altogether and heading south down the A26 motorway for the coastal town of Genoa.

You can of course explore Milano with car hire at Milano Airport, although it can be tough going if you plan on driving right in the city centre to the Duomo, for example.
