“Our numbers show that Milan Prime is an extremely attractive destination for both business and leisure traffic. The newMilano Malpensa Prime B&GA Terminal is a complementary service to Milano Linate Prime, which has a unique position, only 4.3 miles far from Milan city centre” commented Chiara Dorigotti, General Manager at SEA Prime. “In our vision, the new Milano Malpensa Prime Terminal will be an additional gateway not only to the city of Milan, but also for Lombardy and the heart of Europe.
