Milan Malpensa International Airport is a low-elevation field at 768 ft (234 m), positioned at 45.6306° N, 8.7281° E in the Northern mid-latitudes. The runway snapshot lists 2 runways and a longest runway of 12,861 ft / 3,920 m. The airport clock uses Europe/Rome (CEST, UTC+02:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.
Gallarate is the closest retained city-time anchor at 5.9 km. LIN Segrate (MI) is the closest retained airport alternative at 47 km.
MXP is compared with LIN Segrate (MI) at 47 km, BGY Orio al Serio (BG) at 76 km, TRN Caselle Torinese (TO) at 97 km, GOA Genova (GE) at 136 km, BLQ Bologna at 235 km inside the retained Italy airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.

OurAirports classifies MXP as a large airport with scheduled service; the airport name and codes identify it as an international gateway for Ferno (VA).
MXP (LIMC) is a low-elevation field at 768 ft (234 m) in the mid-latitudes, kept in the curated set for its route, timezone, and market-planning value.
MXP sits in a broader regional network with 5 nearby curated alternatives, so airline choice and connection strategy are part of the planning story here.
MXP's runway record lists 2 runways, with the longest runway at 12,861 ft / 3,920 m and source surfaces recorded as asphalt (2).
Società Esercizi Aeroportuali SEA is the clearest operator or management signal we currently have on file for MXP.
These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at sea-aeroportimilano.it, then blend that with local timezone, route, and city-access data already on this page.
These are the specific situations where this airport page earns its keep: time-zone conversion, city transfer planning, nearby airport backup logic, and source-confidence checks before acting.
MXP uses Europe/Rome (CEST, UTC+02:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Milan Malpensa International Airport is about 40 km from central Ferno (VA); build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
LIN Segrate (MI) is the closest retained alternate at 47 km, time difference +0h.
sea-aeroportimilano.it is listed as the official airport website in the airport facts snapshot; live schedules, gates, routes, terminals, and NOTAM-sensitive operations still need official airport or airline verification.
These comparisons place MXP inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
MXP ranks #9 in the curated Italy airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 12 airports.
MXP shares Europe/Rome with BGY Orio al Serio (BG) IT · BLQ Bologna IT · BRI Bari IT · CIA Rome IT · FCO Rome IT · FLR Firenze (FI) IT. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
MXP is 768 ft (234 m). Closest elevation peers in the retained airport set include CEK 769 ft (234 m) (1 ft delta) · SVX 764 ft (233 m) (4 ft delta) · DEL 777 ft (237 m) (9 ft delta) · BUR 778 ft (237 m) (10 ft delta) · DRS 755 ft (230 m) (13 ft delta).

Because the airport sits well outside central Ferno (VA), surface transfer planning matters almost as much as flight timing, especially for late arrivals and early departures.
Milan is the nearest mapped city anchor in the current dataset, which makes it the cleanest companion page when travelers want to switch from airport timing into local city timing.
Milan Malpensa International Airport has 5 nearby indexed airport alternatives, which makes backup departures and diversion logic part of real planning instead of a theoretical edge case.
Airport pages are most useful when they bridge into real city clocks. These city anchors are ranked by distance from MXP, then shown with their own timezone, local time, and time difference from the airport clock.
