I will be in Europe for a little over two weeks, and I am having problems finding effective & affordable flights/train transportation getting from Frankfurt Germany (where we are flying into) to Murren Switz. Then from Murren to Sicily (flying into either Palermo or Catania) then from Sicily to Paris. Does anyone know of cheap Euro carrier flights to connect to these cities?

Frankfurt to Murren is a fairly simple train connection - there is an ICE that gets you to Interlaken Ost from Frankfurt(Main) then you need to use local train/bus/cablecar connections to travel to Lauterbrunnen then Murren. If you use the bahn.de site you can get timetables and pricing (2nd class for 1 person is 109 Euro).
From memory the closest airport is Bern when leaving, but again from Interlaken there is a direct train to Zurich airport (if you get the right one) which might be easier to get a connection from. Sorry can't offer any help on carriers.

Check Air One for flights to Palermo or Catania.

Jessica, if Air One flys to your destinations you will find that they have great prices, and good service. We used them on our last trip in Italy, and were very happy.
