Search aircraft on LineaumMilan Linate Airport (LIN) is Milan’s city airport, located just 7km east of the Duomo. It’s the natural FBO choice for clients heading to the Quadrilatero della Moda fashion district, Italian business meetings, and Lake Como.
A single FBO operates on-airport: SEA Prime, with full VIP terminal services, hangarage, and Italian-design lounges. Operating hours are 06:30 to 23:00. The 2,442m runway accepts most business aircraft including heavy and ultra-long-range jets, though the largest aircraft (BBJ, ACJ) typically position to Milan Malpensa (MXP) instead.
Peak demand is concentrated around Milan Fashion Week (twice yearly), Salone del Mobile (April design week), and Italian business calendar peaks. Booking 4 to 6 weeks ahead during Fashion Week is essential. Linate is also the standard FBO for Lake Como arrivals via car (1 hour) or helicopter (15 to 20 minutes to lakeside hotels).
