Accepted Answer

There are three airports in Milan, but only two offer flights from Milan to New York – MXP and LIN. If you want easy access from downtown, LIN is much closer than MXP, and transport to and from the airport will be much cheaper. However, MXP is a major international airport offering many direct routes to cities across the world, and so you’ll have many flight options at MXP, including direct flights to New York, which are unavailable at LIN. Moreover, it is better served by public transportation, with the Malpensa express providing regular services to downtown Milan. Similarly, New York City has three airports, but only two serve flights from Milan – JFK and EWR. Of the two, JFK is most preferred since it has better transport connections that will get you downtown fast. It is also the bigger international airport, offering many domestic and international flights. EWR is much smaller than JFK, meaning it’s easier to navigate, and it has an AirTrain which makes trips downtown much simpler.

Option two is the train, Malpensa Express, which you can take from Milano Porta Garibaldi, Cadorna, and Milano Centrale to the Malpensa Station at Terminal 1 and Terminal 2. Car rentals are another good option, and Avis, Budget, Hertz, Europcar, SIXT, Thrifty, and Dollar have their rental counters at MXP and LIN. Taxis are also available 24h at MXP and LIN and are usually found outside the arrivals hall. Most are metered, but they offer a flat rate from the airport to downtown. The transport network in New York is extensive, and you’ll have an easy time getting to downtown New York. First, both JFK and EWR are served by the AirTrain, which provides regular services to downtown New York. Taxis are available curbside, and most offer a flat rate for a trip to the airport from downtown and vice versa.

Car rentals are another option, and most big-name rental agencies have counters in New York airports.
