Airport history
Milan Linate was originally built in the 1930s (Taliedo Airport, one of the first airports in the world, was too small for commercial traffic). The airport was rebuilt in the 1950s and again in the 1980s. Since 2001, due to the airport's close proximity to the Milan city center, the airport has been limited to 22 slots per hour, with only domestic and international flights to EU countries permitted.
Airport location
The airport is located in Viale Enrico Forlanini, near its intersection with autostrada A51 (exit 6 Aeroporto Linate). A51 is part of the city's highway ring so that the airport can be reached from any direction.
