Driving directions:

From central Milan, make your way onto Via Senato or Via Francesco Sforza (two roads that circle the centre of the city) and head westbound along the connecting Corso di Porta Vittoria. This road leads directly to the airport. From the A51 ring road that skirts the east of the city, take the ‘Linate’ exit (exit 6).

Milan Linate Airport has good links to the northern Italian road network: Autostrada 8 leads to Varese; Autostrada 4 links to Novara; Autostrada 1 connects to Piacenza; and Autostrada 7 runs south to Genoa. The P41 connects to Switzerland via Como. Please note that most of these routes are toll roads.
