Milan Malpensa: an airport named after a man who ran a whole country in absentia.
Milan's Malpensa Airport takes Berlusconi's name
Milan's Malpensa Airport has been officially renamed Aeroporto Silvio Berlusconi after the four-time prime minister, who died in June 2023. The renaming triggered a petition calling it a 'provocation' and a legal challenge from Milan's city council, which argued the decision bypassed proper procedure. Berlusconi's government had, in 2008, already gotten the airport renamed from Malpensa to 'Malpensa — Silvio Berlusconi' before that was scrapped. It's now permanent, pending the courts.
