Day in Milan
Hi! I have about 7 hours in Milan. I fly in at 11:00 am to Malpensa. I have a ticket to see the last Supper at 1:30 pm. I'm scared about time. What is the quickest way into the city from Malpensa and is there somewhere I can drop my bag? I was thinking a train into Cardona station (near The Last Supper) but I don't know if they have a luggage check????

Left luggage room at Malpensa: on the Arrivals floor, go down the corridor to the right (past the bus/train ticket office) and you'll see it on your left. They will x-ray your luggage and charge 2.50€ per piece per day.
Trains run every 30 minutes from Terminal 1 to Milano Cardona Station; a ticket costs 9€, and the journey takes 50 minutes. There is a left luggage at the station.
Malpensa Shuttle coaches connect Milan Central Railway Station to Malpensa Airport in approx. 50 minutes. Coaches leave every 20 minutes.
Left luggage is available at Milano Centrale. On the ground floor, located in the new internal walking path (side piazza Luigi di Savoia).
Thank you so much. I'll be taking a train out of Central station for Turin later that day. If I was running late from the airport I thought I might make it to Last Supper faster if I got a train to Cardona and left my bag there. The central station looks farther away.

You are right, Cardona is not far from Last Supper. About a 20 minute walk, here's a link to your route.
Amy,
I would recommend taking the train to Cadorno because it is very close to the La Cenacola Viniciano (The Last Supper). The walk is only about 10 minutes from Cadorno to the church. I usually take the bus, but that would deposit you on the other side of town at Stazione Centrale.
Buon viaggio,
RB
