nyc: I need to start planning my trip. NYC - as in JFK. GERMANY - as in Munich.|||It depends on whether it is a direct flight or not. Let's say you picked Lufthansa (the major German airline) as your carrier. They offer direct flights between JFK and MUC (i.e., Munich) on a daily basis with one of them being LH411. Duration of flight is 8 hours and 10 minutes. Planes usually depart in the evening and arrive early morning. Btw, time difference between Munich and New York is 6 hours, so Munich is 6 hours ahead of NY, but you probably knew that.|||I recall the actual air time from Frankfurt to New York being closer to seven hours.|||16 hours
