'''Milan Linate Airport''' {{airport codes|LIN|LIML}} is a city airport located in [[Milan]], the second-largest city and largest urban area of [[Italy]]. It served 10.6 million passengers and recorded 118,060 aircraft movements in 2024, making it [[List of the busiest airports in Italy|one of the busiest airports in Italy]].<ref name="Assaeroporti" /> It is the third-busiest airport in the [[Milan metropolitan area]] in terms of passenger numbers, after [[Milan Malpensa Airport|Malpensa]] and [[Milan Bergamo Airport|Bergamo]], and the second busiest in terms of aircraft movements.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Dati di traffico - 2022 |url=https://assaeroporti.com/wp-content/plugins/multipage_xls_reader/pdf_file/dati_annuali/2022.pdf |access-date=15 December 2023 |website=Assaaeroporti |publisher=Associazione Italiana Gestori Aeroporti |archive-date=20 December 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20241220203234/https://assaeroporti.com/wp-content/plugins/multipage_xls_reader/pdf_file/dati_annuali/2022.pdf |url-status=dead }}</ref>

Together with [[Milan Malpensa Airport]] and [[Milan Bergamo Airport]], they form the Milan airport system with 56.9 million passengers in 2024, the largest airport system in Italy by number of passengers.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Archivio 2024 |url=https://assaeroporti.com/archivio/ |access-date=2025-06-10 |website=Assaeroporti |date=26 November 2024 |language=it-IT}}</ref>

==History==
===Early years===
The airport was built next to [[Idroscalo]] of Milan in the 1930s when Taliedo Airport, located {{convert|1|km|abbr=on}} from the southern border of Milan and one of the world's first [[aerodrome]]s and airports, became too small for commercial traffic. Linate was completely rebuilt in the 1950s and again in the 1980s.{{citation needed|date=April 2022}}

Its name comes from the small village where it is located in the town of [[Peschiera Borromeo]]. Its official name is ''Airport [[Enrico Forlanini]]'', after the Italian inventor and aeronautical pioneer born in Milan. Linate airport buildings are located in the [[Segrate]] Municipality, and the field is located for a large part in the Peschiera Borromeo Municipality.{{citation needed|date=March 2025}}

===Development since 2000===
Since 2001, because of Linate's close proximity to the centre of Milan – only {{convert|7|km|0|abbr=on}} east of the city centre,<ref name="AIP" /> compared with Malpensa, which is 41&nbsp;km (25&nbsp;mi) northwest of the city centre – its capacity has been reduced by law from 32 slots per hour (technical capacity) down to 22 slots per hour (politically decided capacity) and only domestic or international flights within the EU or to the United Kingdom have been allowed.{{citation needed|date=April 2022}} That year, 2001, also saw a [[Linate Airport disaster|major accident]] at Linate with many illegal{{citation needed|date=April 2024}} and non-[[ICAO]]-regulation practices{{refn|group=Note|1=For instance, according to an English language pdf file titled "Milan Linate runway incursion", October 2001"<ref name="ICAO1">{{cite web|url=https://www.icao.int/MID/Documents/2017/PANS%20AD%20Seminar-Workshop/Linate%20Case%20Study.pdf |title=Milan Linate runway incursion|access-date=2024-04-17}}</ref> hosted in http://www.icao.int, it pinpointed that ICAO Annex 14 was not complied; in addition ICAO Annex 1 was not fully complied.}} and layouts part of its then operation.{{citation needed|date=April 2022}}

From 27 July to 27 October 2019, Linate was closed for runway resurfacing and terminal upgrades. The latter project is expected to continue after the airport's reopening, concluding some time in 2021. During this closure, most flights were rerouted to Malpensa, displacing approximately 2.5 million passengers.<ref name=19close>{{cite web |last=Calder |first=S. |date=9 October 2018 |title=Milan Linate: One of Italy's top airports to close for three months |publisher=Independent |url=https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/milan-linate-airport-closing-duomo-italy-ops-group-why-runway-a8575616.html |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20220614/https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/milan-linate-airport-closing-duomo-italy-ops-group-why-runway-a8575616.html |archive-date=14 June 2022 |url-access=subscription |url-status=live |access-date=27 August 2019}}</ref><ref name=geeks>{{cite web |last=Gibertini |first=V. |date=26 July 2019 |title=Milan's Linate Airport Temporarily Shuts Down, Flights Relocated to Malpensa |publisher=AirlineGeeks |url=https://airlinegeeks.com/2019/07/26/milans-linate-airport-temporarily-shuts-sown-flights-relocated-to-malpensa/ |access-date=27 August 2019}}</ref>

In July 2023, Linate Airport was named Europe's Best Airport in the 5-10 Million Passenger category by the [[Airport Council International]].<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |date=2023-07-05 |title=Milan Linate city airport wins Europe's Best Airport Award 2023 |url=https://www.routesonline.com/airports/18068/milan-airports-sea/news/299661704/milan-linate-city-airport-wins-europes-best-airport-award-2023/ |access-date=2023-11-16 |website=Routes |language=en-GB}}</ref> Also as of 2023, the airport had received level 4+ of the [[Airport Carbon Accreditation]].<ref name=":0" />

==Facilities==
===Terminal===
Linate Airport features one three-story passenger terminal building. The ground level contains the check-in and separate baggage reclaim facilities as well as service counters and a secondary [[gate (airport)|departure gate]] area for bus-boarding. The first floor features the main departure area with several shops, restaurants and service facilities. The second floor is used for office space.<ref>[http://www.milanolinate-airport.com/en/airport/maps milanolinate-airport.com – Maps] retrieved 23 June 2015</ref>

===Apron and runway===
The terminal building features five aircraft stands, all of which are equipped with jet-bridges. Several more parking positions are available on the apron which are reached from several bus-boarding gates.{{citation needed|date=December 2023}} AIRAC A10/23 (valid from 30 November 2023) has determined the new QFU of the runway as 17/35 (was earlier 18/36) due to magnetic variation, and downgraded the "old" 17/35 to a taxiway only.{{citation needed|date=December 2023}}

==Ground transport==
===Metro===
The [[Milan Metro Line 4]] connects the airport to the city centre with a travel time of about 15 minutes.<ref>{{Cite web|title=How to get to Linate by Underground|url=https://www.milanolinate-airport.com/en/from-to/by-underground|access-date=2022-11-26|website=Milano Linate Airport|language=en}}</ref>

The [[Azienda Trasporti Milanesi|ATM]] bus 73 used to serve a route from [[Piazza del Duomo, Milan|Piazza Duomo]] in the city centre to the Airport, as well as San Felice. The urban section of the line was cut to only serve the neighborhood of [[Forlanini (district of Milan)|Forlanini]] when the M4 metro opened, and the line was subsequently renamed to the 973''.''In November 2024, service was reintroduced back along the former route to Piazza Cinque Giornate.<ref>{{Cite web |last=WhatsApp |first=Massimiliano Melley Giornalista 02 dicembre 2024 17:32 Facebook |title=Bus 973 fino a Cinque Giornate, continua la polemica: "Ne passa una ogni 20 minuti" |url=https://www.milanotoday.it/politica/prolungmento-73-sabato-30-novembre.html |access-date=2025-10-26 |website=MilanoToday |language=it}}</ref> Other bus lines also serve Linate, including the ATM 901 and 903, and the suburban buses Z509 and K511.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Arrivare a Linate in bus {{!}} Milano Linate |url=https://www.milanolinate-airport.com/it/da-per/in-bus |access-date=2024-10-01 |website=www.milanolinate-airport.com |language=it}}</ref>
