Milan Malpensa (MXP) is the city’s main international gateway and usually handles long-haul and many intercontinental flights, so it’s often the choice for premium carriers and full-service alliances. Located about 50 km northwest of central Milan, transfer times vary: the Malpensa Express train reaches Milano Centrale in roughly 40–50 minutes and fares typically sit in a mid-range bracket; taxis and private transfers can take around 45–70 minutes depending on traffic and tend to be pricier. Pros: modern international facilities and good rail links; cons: longer transfer distance to the city and occasional peak-hour congestion. Milan Linate (LIN) serves as the nearer, more convenient airport for domestic and short-haul European services and is frequently used by business travelers and short-stop flights. It lies about 7 km east of the city center, so travel times are short — 15–25 minutes by taxi and around 25–30 minutes by bus or tram depending on your drop-off; fares are generally modest. Pros: quick access to central Milan and compact terminals; cons: fewer long-haul options and sometimes higher ticket prices for short-haul convenience. Bergamo Orio al Serio (BGY), often marketed as Milan Bergamo, is typically a budget-oriented airport popular with low-cost carriers and leisure travelers. Situated roughly 45 km northeast of central Milan, coach transfers usually take about 45–60 minutes with inexpensive shuttle fares, while taxis and ride-shares can be significantly faster but more costly. Pros: generally lower airfares and a high frequency of low-cost routes; cons: farther from the city center and more limited amenities compared with larger hubs. Parma and Verona airports can sometimes be options for reaching Milan from certain regional or seasonal routes, though they are positioned further out and typically serve niche or supplementary traffic rather than core Milan flights. Transfer times to Milan are longer — often 1.5–2.5 hours by road or regional rail — and fares vary widely by operator and season. Pros: potential savings or direct connections for specific routes; cons: reduced frequency, longer ground transfers, and fewer on-site services compared with Milan’s main airports.

Cape Town International Airport serves as South Africa’s main international gateway for the Western Cape and typically functions as a full-service hub rather than a low-cost outpost. It usually hosts a mix of flag carriers, regional airlines and some budget operators, so fares can range from competitive to premium depending on season and carrier. The airport sits about 20–25 km from the city centre; taxi or ride-share trips commonly take 20–40 minutes depending on traffic and can cost roughly ZAR 200–450, while the MyCiTi bus offers a cheaper 30–50 minute connection with modest fares. Pros include a compact terminal with good international connections and rental-car services; cons can be congestion at peak times and occasional delays on transfers.
