REACHING THE CAMPUS FROM MILANO-MALPENSA AIRPORT
ake the Malpensa Express train that leaves Terminal 1 every 30 min. The trip lasts about 35-40 minutes and the tickets can be bought at the ticket office of Malpensa railway station. Get off at Bovisa station. Once outside, turn left and go down the
stairs. Then go straight through Piazza Emilio Alfieri and Via Giuseppe Candiani and, after the crossroads with Via Durando, you will find the main entrance of the Bovisa Campus (see the map).Taking a taxi from Malpensa Airport will not help you
saving time (except in the late evening hours) and could be quite expensive.

REACHING THE CAMPUS FROM MILANO-LINATE AIRPORT
Catch 73X bus, a non-stop bus, which will take you to the city centre (Piazza S. Babila). Tickets can be bought at the bookstall in the airport or on the bus paying an extra fee. Then, catch the underground (red line − MM1) for “Rho Fiera” or “Bisceglie” and get off at Cadorna station. In the daytime, trains leave Cadorna station every 5-10 min. Please check whether the train stops at Bovisa station or not. The trip will last about 50 minutes.
A taxi fare will take from 45 to 60 minutes, depending on road traffic.

REACHING THE CAMPUS FROM ORIO AL SERIO AIRPORT
Catch the bus to Milano Centrale, then take the underground to Cadorna and follow the instructions above-mentioned. It takes at least 1h30 to reach the Bovisa Campus. A taxi will be faster but quite expensive. In alternative, you can:

Later renovated and enlarged, in the 16th and 17th centuries it was one of the largest citadels in Europe. Extensively rebuilt by Luca Beltrami in 1891–1905, it now houses several of the city's museums and art collections.
