Flights I am looking for to Venice mostly have connections thru CDG, Munich, or Frankfurt. I have been in Frankfurt and it is quite large and not the easiest to Navigate. Would connections thru Munich be the easiest.
Yes. Munich Airport specializes in quick connections.
As long as you are coming in on Lufthansa and out on Lufthansa, MUC should be easy.
Munich is the easiest of the three. My connection there this past October went very smoothly.
Avoid CDG at all costs. It's got my vote for worst airport in Europe. Confusing and both times I went through there they lost my luggage.
Joel, I agree with the others. Of the three airports, Munich is the easiest to navigate. Both CDG and FRA are huge airports, so it may take some time to get from your arrival gate to your departure gate for the connecting flight. However, one positive comment about FRA. I had to make a connecting flight to Rome there last year, with only one hour between the arrival of my flight from here, and the departure of the next one. I questioned both the Travel Agent and the Flight Attendant on the short transfer time, and was told "it's Frankfurt, don't worry about it, they're very efficient". They were absolutely right! I was at the gate for my next flight in 20-minutes! Fortunately the circumstances made that much easier. My seat in "sardine class" was just behind business class on the flight from here, so was able to get off the plane quickly and get through Passport control without wasting any time. Happy travels!
I second Rik. Avoid CDG at all cost. The lines for departures are roped off for only a short distance, leading to a large, disorganized crowd when several flights are departing for the U.S. at about the same time. Plus, the personnel are as slow-moving a bunch as I have ever seen. Frankfurt, too, is big and lines can be long and slow moving. And, you have to go through two security lines, not just one. That really slows things down. Munich Airport is smaller, better organized and there is only one security check. It just seems more customer-friendly.
