Milan is the new direct flight from Skopje — shopping, art and cuisine just two hours away. Here is what you need to know before you book.
Skopje – Milan flight (direct, Wizz Air)
- Direct, non-stop flight — duration 2 hours (departures 18:10–18:50 depending on the day)
- 4 flights a week (Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday)

Visa and documents
Macedonian citizens travel to Italy visa-free for short stays of up to 90 days in any 180-day period, but the visa-free regime applies only to holders of a biometric passport (Regulation (EU) 2018/1806, Annex II). Macedonia has issued biometric passports since April 2007, so every valid Macedonian passport today is biometric. The passport must be valid for at least three months after the intended date of departure from the Schengen area (Regulation (EU) 2016/399, Article 6).
Getting to the centre
