  • Malpensa provides a special service ViaMilano: www.flyviamilano.eu/en to find and combine flights from different airlines. This service could be really useful.

  • Ryanair does not sell connection flights, but if you fly to Bergamo (Ryanair Italian hub) then you can easily find another Ryanair flight for your destination. Check the Bergamo airport web site: http://www.orioaeroporto.it/en/
