Talk:Milan Malpensa Airport

Third runway
According to construction on the third runway will start in September 2012 (10 months from when this was written). Surely the plans must be complete. A preliminary map of the new airport layout (like the ones on Berlin Brandenburg) would be very useful. --Ysangkok (talk) 22:41, 24 October 2011 (UTC)

Origin of name "malpensa"?
The English translation of "malpensa" appears to be "poorly think", i.e. bad idea. Odd name for an airport to use. It'd be interesting to have a section on that here.&mdash; Wdfarmer (talk) 20:10, 7 January 2012 (UTC)


 * I found the answer in the Italian version of the article. Malpensa was the name of the farm where the airport was created.  The Italians have quite a sense of humor to retain it in the name of an airport.&mdash; Wdfarmer (talk) 20:19, 7 January 2012 (UTC)

Three airports in Milan metropolitan area?
I may be wrong, but I can only count two airports in that area: Linate and Malpensa. Milano Orio al Serio is in fact in Bergamo, which - as far as I know, and also from what I see in this page - is outside the boundaries of that area. I'm correcting that statement... --151.32.232.51 (talk) 12:48, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

MXP terminal 1C
When Terminal 1C opens, will it be a Schengen or Non-Schengen facility. And when will it open? I really want to know. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.89.35.142 (talk) 00:43, 6 July 2012 (UTC)

What is the difference between freight and cargo?
The text says: 'Until 2008, Malpensa Airport was a major hub for Alitalia, Italy's national airliner. Malpensa Airport, together with Rome Fiumicino Airport, remains as the busiest Italian airport for international passenger traffic, freight and cargo.'

So what would be the difference between 'freight' and 'cargo'. Meursault2004 (talk) 04:50, 3 July 2016 (UTC)

Edit war w. User CBG17
Hi guys

I am actually in an edit war with user CBG17 with regards to NEOS seasonal destinations (for summer 2019). Very quickly:

CBG17 position: destinations do not appear in the website = remove My position: Complete schedule for summer 2019 not yet published (Neos usually complete this in March or even later), as we are speaking about flights of more than 8 months ahead. In addition, destinations removed (mainly domestic) are those operated in agreements with tour operators. Such agreements are usually 4 years long and last renew was done in 2017 (meaning that agreements will be due in 2021). I am not sure if those destinations are included in such agreements (I am looking for ref.s) but I would avoid to come back later to re-add destinations (as it already happened).

any idea to stop edit war?

Protection against vandalism
Hi guys

due to recurrent vandalisms to the page from unregistered user (only IP appearing), I suggest to make page modifiable only by registered users, how can I proceed with the request?

Flybe to Birmingham
It has been edited that Flybe service will become seasonal according added reference by user Air7777, https://www.routesonline.com/news/38/airlineroute/286792/flybe-files-additional-service-suspensions-in-w19/?highlight=milan.

But the reference clearly states that service will be supsended, not that will become seasonal. A flight is considered seasonal only if it is operated in just one of the two IATA seasons (winter going from October to following March, summer in the remaining) independently by the fact that the service run during the whole season or just in a part. In addition suspension of a service does not automaticalli mena that service will become seasonal.

User Air7777 raise the point that if a service is not always operated, thus is a seasonal. I consider it as a its mere assumption.

The Flybe service MXP - Birmingham have been operated in summer19, will be operated in summer20 and will be resumed in february (winter19-29), thus it shpuld NOT be considered as seasonal.

can be acceptable above? thanks Riktetta (talk) 19:59, 11 October 2019 (UTC)

The flight doesn't operate for 3 months it is not a year round service. Air7777 (talk) 21:28, 11 October 2019 (UTC)

Kenya airways to Nairobi NBO
Hi all

recently it has been re-added Kenyan Airways service to NBO with begin date 8 June 2022. (Unregistered) user that re-added, states that flights are on sale on both GDS and airline website. I found no evidence of it (in airline web only flights with changes in CDG or London are available, NO direct). If anyone can supply a valid reference we can remove CN template, otherwise service have to be removed.

please let me know. Riktetta (talk) 13:05, 8 December 2021 (UTC)

Flights to Russia and Ukraine
Hi fellow Wikipedians

in these days thera are a lot of edits deliberately removing flights from/to Russia and Ukraine (much of them are NON.registered users). Of course, due to the situation, these flights are not actually operated but suspended. I wonder wherever it is worthy to definitively remove them. Looking at other major airport pages, these services are still listed with the tag "Suspended", NOT removed. What do you think? for me removing definitively is useless, at the moment. Is there a specific guideline that suggest to remove them? Riktetta (talk) 06:46, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
