"We spent the the first and last night of our trip to milan in the airport, due to a late night arrival and an early morning departure. The first night was spent in terminal 2 which have a good choice of long benches in arrivals, before midnight, however these benches are made out of wire which is extremely uncomfortable to lie on, if your going to sleep on these make sure you bring something to sleep on! if possible go and search for benches in departures as these looked much more comfortable, these were taken when we arrived which was around 22:30. after settling down around 1 am suddenly a mass of people arrived making lots of noise and taking up every sleeping location, including the end of the bench i was sleeping on! the noise carried on throughout the night until about 5am were i managed to get about an hour of sleep. If I was going to sleep in the airport again i would avoid terminal 2 at all costs and catch the free 24hour shuttle over to terminal one. This is where we stayed on our last night. this was much bigger, more modern and provided a much more pleasurable experience the benches were long and were not too uncomfortable. there were a few other sleepers but they were not in your face like they were in terminal 2."
