early flight from munich to the states

my wife and i have a flight leaving from munich at 7:05am. i know the S-bahn runs throughout the night, but at what time should we arrive for this flight. we flew on a connection through munich in november and landing at 7 am during that flight, there were few workers there at that time. i am trying to avoid getting to the airport and just sitting there for a couple hours until employees show up to check us in, etc....thanks in advance for the help

"i know the S-bahn runs throughout the night".
Not exactly. There is a gap of about 2 hrs until 3:17, but that shouldn't affect your schedule.

Ask the airline when you can (should) check in. If it's an international flight, they usually say check in 2 hours in advance, so you would think there would be someone there. When I flew NW out of FRA a few years ago, they started check-in at 7:00, three hours before flight time.

The last three years in a row we took the same flight from Munich. The first year we got to airport at the butt crack of dawn and no personnel showed up until after 6AM. After that, we got to the airport around 6 and everything was fine.
