Really? Why would that be? What about other Airbus aircraft?

Sorry to batter your with questions.

I can totally understand why they'd divert from Linate. It is in the middle of a large housing development and very close to downtown. MXP is miles from anywhere and has long runways. If there was a problem, the one runway was bocked, Linate would close. It would have no option.
