ITA AirwaysItaly flight and airport FAQs
How can I check whether I need an Italian visa?
Use the Italian Foreign Ministry’s checker for your nationality, residence, travel purpose and stay; confirm with the relevant consulate when needed.
Does a Type A airport transit visa allow entry into the Schengen Area?
The Italian Foreign Ministry states that a Type A airport transit visa does not allow entry into the Schengen Area. Check your own visa and document requirements.
How should I confirm my Milan airport and terminal?
Check whether your flight uses MXP or LIN, then confirm its terminal with the airline. Malpensa provides T1 and T2 maps; the city name alone is insufficient.
