Milan Malpensa (MXP) serves as the city’s main international gateway and usually handles long-haul and intercontinental flights as well as many full-service carriers; it can be perceived as mid-to-premium priced compared with budget-focused fields. The airport is about 50 km northwest of central Milan, with train options (Malpensa Express) taking roughly 35–50 minutes to Milano Cadorna or Centrale and costing in the mid-range for regional airport connections. Road transfers and express buses are common choices; taxi rides typically take 45–60 minutes depending on traffic. Pros: comprehensive facilities and strong international connectivity. Cons: longer transfer distances and sometimes higher fares vs nearer airports. Milan Linate (LIN) is typically positioned as the city’s convenient, business-oriented airport for short-haul and domestic flights and is commonly used by flag carriers and some regional operators. Located only about 7–8 km east of the city center, travel times are short — roughly 15–25 minutes by taxi or city bus — and public transport links (urban buses and trams, plus a metro connection nearby) can be economical. Parking and quick check-in are conveniences for business travelers, while limited long-haul service and higher per-flight costs for some routes can be downsides for budget-conscious flyers. Milan Bergamo Orio al Serio (BGY) often functions as the budget and low-cost carrier hub serving Milan, so fares can be perceived as lower on many short- and medium-haul routes. It sits about 45 km northeast of central Milan; typical transit options include frequent airport buses to Centrale that take around 50–70 minutes and operate at generally low fares, plus taxis and car services which take about 45–60 minutes. Advantages include competitive ticket prices and simple facilities; negatives can be the distance from the city and occasional crowding during peak low-cost travel periods.

Edinburgh Airport (EDI) is Scotland’s primary international gateway, serving a mix of full-service and low-cost carriers and acting as a hub for regional links to the UK and Europe.

Tram and bus fares usually range from budget-friendly single fares to modest day-ticket prices, while taxis can be notably pricier. The airport is convenient for international connections and offers modern facilities, though peak times can mean queues and busy security — a trade-off for its central access and broad route network.
