Lugano is the main economic, financial and tourist hub of Canton Ticino: every day hundreds of travellers leave the city for Milan Malpensa Airport, both for business flights and long-haul international departures. Malpensa Private Transfer is designed for those who no longer want to depend on metered taxis, trains with transfers or shared shuttles: a dedicated chauffeur, a private vehicle and a fixed fare agreed in advance.
The Lugano - Malpensa route covers about 80 km along the A2, A9 and A8 motorways. Under normal conditions the trip takes about 60 minutes, but our chauffeurs always plan a safety margin to account for the Chiasso/Brogeda border crossing, Italian motorway works and seasonal queues between Como and Varese. We monitor traffic in real time and, if needed, switch to alternative routes via Lake Maggiore.
Pick-up takes place directly at your address in Lugano: whether you're in a downtown apartment, in a luxury hotel like Splendide Royal or The View, in an office in the Paradiso area or in a residence on Monte Brè, the chauffeur arrives on time and helps with your luggage. The same applies to the return transfer: we wait at the Malpensa arrivals exit with a name sign and drive you to your doorstep.
We offer three service classes. Business Class (Mercedes V-Class minivan, up to 6 passengers) starts at CHF 250 and is ideal for families, couples and small groups. Group Class (Mercedes Sprinter, up to 8 passengers) starts at CHF 320 and is perfect for business teams or trips with heavy luggage. First Class (Mercedes Maybach) starts at CHF 350 and is a VIP experience for those seeking maximum discretion and luxury.
Thanks to our modern, comfortable vehicles, the journey to Malpensa becomes relaxing: leather seats, individual climate control, free on-board Wi-Fi, mineral water and — on request — device chargers and child seats. No need to worry about parking, tolls, motorway vignette or connections: everything is included.
