From La Thuile to Milan Malpensa (MXP) is a 185 km transfer of about 2 hours 30 minutes, dropping from the resort’s 1,441 m base to the Aosta Valley before crossing Piedmont toward the airport west of Milan. The fare is fixed, with pickup directly from your chalet or hotel.
Route overview
Leaving La Thuile means first rejoining the main Aosta Valley road, then settling into the same long Piedmont crossing used for the Courmayeur-to-Malpensa route. It’s a longer trip than heading to Turin, so the extra distance is factored into the pickup time rather than left as a surprise on the day.
A private transfer keeps it simple: one driver, one vehicle, from your chalet door all the way to the terminal, without a change of trains or an unfamiliar motorway network to navigate.
Your private transfer
Your driver collects you from your hotel or chalet in La Thuile at the agreed time, with room for skis and luggage. The route drops down to join the Aosta Valley, follows the A5 past the Graian Alps, crosses Piedmont near Ivrea, and continues to Milan Malpensa. You’re taken directly to departures.
