What about public transport from Malpensa (MXP) airport to Stresa?

Yes, there is public transport available from Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP) to Stresa. The most common and direct option is usually a bus service. There is also a train option, though it requires a change. Based on the search results, the bus service you are likely referring to is called ALIBUS Lago Maggiore, operated by SAF Duemila. Here's the information regarding the ALIBUS service for next Sunday, May 18th, 2025, and Monday, May 19th, 2025: Cost: The fare from Malpensa Airport to Stresa is €14.00 per person. Booking: The ALIBUS service is a service by reservation. You need to book your journey online, choosing from the fixed times. For departures on Sunday and Monday, the reservation must be made before 11:00 AM on the preceding Saturday. Departure Times from Malpensa Airport (T1 & T2) to Stresa: According to the timetable found, the departure times from Malpensa T1 and T2 to Stresa are as follows: Departures from MALPENSA T.1 (Bus Stop 6, Arrival Floor, Exit Door 2/3): 10:00 12:00 13:30 15:30 18:30 20:00 Departures from MALPENSA T.2 (Bus Stop 6, Arrival Floor, Exit Door 7, turn left): 08:30 11:30 13:30 15:30 18:30 21:00 The journey duration is approximately one hour. These times should apply to both Sunday, May 18th, and Monday, May 19th, provided you have made the required reservation by 11:00 AM on Saturday, May 17th. Important Note: The ALIBUS service requires advance online booking, especially for weekend and Monday travel. Ensure you book by Saturday morning for your Sunday or Monday trip. Alternative Option: Train You can also travel by train, but this involves at least one change. Typically, you would take the Malpensa Express train from the airport (T1 or T2) to Busto Arsizio or Gallarate, and then change to a regional train towards Domodossola, which stops in Stresa. Cost: Train tickets can range from approximately €6 to €11, depending on the specific route and how far in advance you book. Journey Time: The total journey time by train is usually longer than the bus, averaging around 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours, including the change. Frequency: Trains run multiple times a day, generally more frequently than the ALIBUS bus service. You can check specific train schedules for your travel date on the Trenitalia or Trenord websites. In summary, the ALIBUS bus is a direct and convenient option but requires booking in advance. The train is another option, requiring a change but offering more frequent departures throughout the day.
