Cheap flights from Rotterdam to Milan

Start with the weeks just before and after May, then price May itself. Midweek departures can cost less than weekend ones, and school holidays or Christmas can tighten availability. Milan's summer is another period to check carefully. If May does not suit, compare April and June before moving to other months.

The difference you feel is in what the fare includes, not only the logo. The listed carriers are Air Algerie, Transavia Airlines, Ajet, BA CityFlyer, Pegasus, Turkish Airlines, Aegean Airlines and British Airways, and the route has no direct flights, so every option connects. Some fares are bare and add bags, seats and meals later; others include more from the start. The facts here do not label which is which, so read the fare rules before you pay. Also check whether the whole journey is on one ticket, because that decides who helps if a connection fails.

Getting into town depends on which Milan airport you land at. Malpensa and Linate have rail and bus links into central Milan, while Bergamo/Orio al Serio is farther out and is usually reached by coach or taxi. Taxis and ride options exist from all three, but the journey length and feel very different. Look at the airport name before you book, because the three are not interchangeable, and allow extra time if you land late.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check whether your outbound and return flights are on one ticket or separate tickets, because a missed connection on separate tickets is your problem.
• Confirm the Milan airport on the booking, since Bergamo/Orio al Serio, Linate and Malpensa are far apart.
• Read the baggage rules for each carrier, especially fares that charge extra for cabin bags.
• Make sure your travel documents meet Italy's entry rules.
• Compare April, May and June dates before fixing the trip, because May is the cheapest month in the data.
• Leave enough connection time if your itinerary changes planes in a busy hub.
