Monaco to Malpensa Airport (MXP) is a cross-border private transfer of approximately 310 km from the Principality of Monaco to Milano Malpensa International Airport, located in Ferno/Cardano al Campo, 50 km northwest of Milan city centre in the Province of Varese, Lombardy. The journey takes 3h10 to 3h40 via the A8, A10 Autostrada dei Fiori, A26, A7 and A8 dei Laghi motorways, crossing the Franco-Italian border at Ponte San Luigi between Menton and Ventimiglia. Malpensa is Italy’s second busiest airport, handling approximately 25 million passengers annually with two passenger terminals: Terminal 1 (the main international terminal, serving all Intercontinental, European full-service and most charter flights) and Terminal 2 (the low-cost terminal, serving easyJet and some Neos and Air Italy flights). Major intercontinental destinations include New York (JFK, EWR — Alitalia/ITA, Delta, American), Toronto (Air Transat), Chicago (American), Dubai (Emirates), Abu Dhabi (Etihad), Beijing, Shanghai, Tokyo (Cathay Pacific), Doha (Qatar Airways), Singapore (Singapore Airlines), São Paulo (Alitalia/ITA) and most major African hubs. The airport has a dedicated Malpensa Express train connecting T1 directly to Milano Centrale (40 minutes) and Cadorna (37 minutes) stations. Fixed rates start from €800 for a sedan (up to 4 passengers) and €1000 for a van (up to 8 passengers), all-inclusive. The service operates 24/7 with departure flight monitoring, optimal pick-up time calculation, free child seats and VAT invoice provided.
Route Overview: Private Transfer Monaco to Malpensa
The Monaco to Malpensa Airport transfer follows the Ligurian-Lombard corridor — the motorway axis connecting the Côte d’Azur sovereign state to northwestern Italy’s primary intercontinental aviation hub, a cross-border journey that enables Monaco residents and visitors to access long-haul destinations that are simply not served from Nice Côte d’Azur Airport (NCE).
Leaving any Monaco address — Monte-Carlo, Port Hercule, the Palais Princier, Fontvieille or Larvotto — the route crosses the Ponte San Luigi Franco-Italian border, follows the A10 Autostrada dei Fiori through Sanremo, Imperia and Savona, then the A26 climbs to Genoa. The A7 dei Giovi carries the journey north through the Passo dei Giovi to Milan, where the A8 dei Laghi branches northwest through Gallarate and Busto Arsizio to arrive at Malpensa from the south.
Milano Malpensa Airport (IATA: MXP) is Italy’s principal intercontinental gateway — the airport from which the vast majority of direct long-haul routes from Italy operate. Its position 50 km northwest of Milan, adjacent to the Lago Maggiore lakeland, means it draws passengers not only from the Lombardia metropolitan area but from the entire Piemonte, Valle d’Aosta, Ticino (Switzerland) and Côte d’Azur catchment area. For Monaco residents with a direct flight to New York, Dubai, Tokyo or São Paulo that does not operate from NCE, the Monaco to Malpensa private transfer is the most efficient solution.
Terminal 1 — the main terminal, handling approximately 20 million passengers annually — is the largest airport terminal building in Italy: a single-level departures hall of 70,000 m² with 97 check-in desks, 5 security zones and 52 departure gates in four piers (A, B, C and D). The intercontinental long-haul gates are in Pier B and Pier C — our drivers know the terminal approach, the correct departures drop-off lane for each pier and the optimal arrival time for each check-in deadline.
Terminal 2 — the dedicated low-cost terminal, connected to T1 by a free inter-terminal shuttle bus (7 minutes) — serves primarily easyJet (its largest Italian base), Neos (charter and leisure) and several Air Italy routes. The T2 architecture is compact and efficient — check-in closes earlier than T1 for most routes; our drivers confirm the correct check-in deadline at booking.
The Malpensa Express train — connecting T1 directly to Milano Centrale (40 minutes, €13) and Cadorna (37 minutes, €13) — is an efficient public transport alternative for passengers without heavy luggage. For Monaco residents with full international travel luggage, the private chauffeur service offers door-to-door convenience that the train cannot provide.
Distance, Travel Time and Price for Monaco to Malpensa Transfer

We recommend departing Monaco at least 3h before your MXP check-in deadline closes for intercontinental flights and 2h30 for European routes.
