  "connection_tips": "Milan Bergamo Airport is operationally simple but strategically unforgiving, which is why self-connect travelers need more discipline here than they might at a larger hub. The airport itself is not confusing; the real issue is the chain of baggage, border, and onward-road or coach transfer decisions that follow the flight. If you use separate tickets, short layovers can unravel very quickly once you add low-cost boarding rules and Schengen changes.\n\nIf your broader trip involves Milan Linate or Malpensa, treat the coach or road transfer as a genuine intercity move rather than as a shuttle between terminals. The distance and traffic mean that a transfer inside the Milan system can be far more fragile than the terminal map at BGY suggests, and even rail plans need buffer if another flight depends on them.\n\nThe right way to use Bergamo is to respect it as a point-to-point airport with good ground links and little tolerance for improvisation. Arrive early for bag drop and security, avoid squeezing the city transfer, and remember that the simplicity of the building does not reduce the risk of a missed flight once you start stitching separate tickets together. That is the difference between a smooth low-cost itinerary and a missed onward flight.\n",

  "terminal_info": "Milan Bergamo Airport (BGY), also widely associated with Orio al Serio and Il Caravaggio, is one of Italy's busiest low-cost gateways and a major access point for the Milan area. Although it sits closer to Bergamo than to central Milan, its network role is strongly tied to the wider Lombardy market and to high-volume short-haul traffic across Europe and the Mediterranean.\n\nThe airport operates from a single large terminal, but that terminal handles heavy traffic and can feel busy well beyond what its footprint suggests. It is especially important for low-cost carriers and point-to-point travel, which means many passengers are self-connecting or managing their own onward plans. The airport works well when used with realistic timing, but it is not forgiving of optimistic assumptions during peaks.\n\nIts real advantage is landside connectivity. Coaches to Milan, Bergamo, and other northern Italian destinations make it useful far beyond its immediate location, even before the future rail improvements are fully in place. BGY is therefore less a simple Bergamo airport than a major budget gateway for the wider region.",
