No in most cases it doesn't allow enough time to get on your connecting flight. Many airports have huge corridors and the time to walk between your flight and the next flight is comprised. Ignoring the fact that your own flight may be delayed on take off. I normally allow at least 1.30 hours between connecting flights.

How much time do you need for a layover in Munich?

You may have a particularly long layover to get through – the good news is for travellers with at least 5 hours between flights is that it's easy to get out and explore Munich or some nearby Bavarian towns. Fresh air, good architecture, and local food may just be the best way to spend a layover.

Is 2 hour layover enough for international flight?

The recommended layover time for international flights is generally longer, as you will have to go through customs and immigration before boarding your next flight.

What happens if you miss a connecting flight because of a delay?

If the missed connection is the airline's fault (a delayed initial flight due to mechanical problems, for example), the airline should rebook you on the next available flight. If the next outbound flight is the following morning, the airline should either book you on another airline or provide accommodations and meals.

Is 30 minutes enough time to catch a connecting flight?

If you miss your ongoing flight, the airline is obligated to put you on the next available flight with no additional charges. Some of those minimum connecting times are incredibly short for a big airport, as low as 30 minutes in some cases, and usually less than 60 minutes for domestic connections.

Is 1 hour enough for connecting flights in Munich?

An hour connection time might be OK "IF" the flight departed on time and arrived on time. With the first flight departing 20 minutes late it spiraled so that it took too long to get through customs and made me miss all remaining scheduled flights.

Do you have to go through customs for a layover in Munich?

In Europe, Customs generally takes no time at all, apart from waiting for your luggage. Usually, you just walk through a door labelled "Nothing to declare". But at your first stop (Munich), you have to go through Immigration (Passport Control) and this may not be quick.

Is 50 minutes enough layover in Munich?

If your flight is on time (usually the transatlantic flights are even ahead of time) 50 min will be plenty. If your flight is 30 min late they will escort you from your incoming plane to the outgoing plane without waiting times.

What is the minimum international connection time at Munich airport?
