When to fly

November is the lowest month in the fare calendar for this route. October, March and May can also be worth comparing, while December and January usually sit higher because of winter holidays and Christmas travel. June may rise as summer trips begin, and February can be affected by Lunar New Year travel. Check school holiday dates in both China and Italy before you fix your travel days, and compare weekday and weekend departures in the calendar. Book earlier for December and January; for November, compare dates before you commit.

Airlines and what to expect

All of these itineraries connect at least once, so compare the connection airport, waiting time and whether you change terminals. The named carriers are Xiamen Airlines, Hainan Airlines, Tianjin Airlines, West Air China, China Southern Airlines, China Eastern Airlines, Juneyao Airlines, Hong Kong Airlines, Air China and Shenzhen Airlines. Check whether the connection is on one ticket and whether bags are checked through. Fare inclusions vary, so compare checked baggage, meals, seat selection and change rules before you pay. A longer connection can be easier than a short one if you need to change terminals or recheck bags.

Arriving — Milan

Malpensa is the largest of Milan's three airports and usually means longer walks, more gates and a longer transfer into the city. Linate is the closest to central Milan, while Bergamo/Orio al Serio is another out-of-town airport to the northeast. Trains, shuttle buses and taxis are the usual ways in, but the right choice depends on your arrival time and luggage. If you land late, check the last train or bus before you book, and allow extra time if your ticket sends you to a different airport on the return. Keep your passport and any required documents handy for arrival checks.
