Looks like Linate finally gets runway repairs and terminal upgrades. Closed July 27-Oct 27 with ongoing works until 2021!

The only real worry would be if they are using German designers/planners to do the work!

I assume most of the flights normally handled by LIN will be redirected to MXP & BGY, rather than outright cancelled?

If so, I can just see Malpensa and Bergamo getting horribly overcrowded over those few months. Lucky I don't have any plans to visit Milan over that period.

Interesting, I have an EK flight into MXP in oct.

Am I correct to understand that this Linate outage wasn’t exactly planned?

Of course it was planned - they've provided months of advance notice.
