"they shut down the whole airport"
17 reviews Wolfgang Bernhart (Germany)
✅ Trip Verified | First snow in Munich, which is normal this time of the year, and they shut down the whole airport. Then they have nothing for the stranded passengers - no blankets, no emergency beds. And no taxis to go to an hotel.

"a stressful experience"
B Tixier (France)
Not Verified | I had to wait for 45 minutes to get through security check. Many people from the airport staff were talking together. There was a huge amount of people waiting to pass the check point, but the staff was very very slow. I almost miss my connective flight. Probably they should drink coffee to be fully awake at 6am. When I finally reached the boarding gate, the women told me she was closing the gate. I told her many people were still at the check point. She was sorry but she had to close the gate. I don’t know if people missed their flight. Just a stressful experience.

"wonder for what you are paying for"
17 reviews Wolfgang Bernhart (Germany)
✅ Trip Verified | You better avoid German airports. In Amsterdam, you are through security in a few minutes - in Munich, it always takes long. Long walks, and bad operations. Today most flights delayed because they have not enough people in ground services. You wonder for what you are paying for.

"Staffing was seriously lacking"
P Cooper (United States)
✅ Trip Verified | MUC has always been one of my favorite airports, but during the 2023 summer high season, this gem of an airport felt like it has hit some hard times. Staffing was seriously lacking, and on our flight day, customers had issues with online check in. So at the airport lines were snaking with people trying to make their flights. We arrived 3 hours before our flight to JFK, and we barely made it. Not the efficiency I expected. Is this the new norm?

"a billion sign posts"
Will Tew (United Kingdom)
Not Verified | If you could design an airport which maximises frustration, confusion and misery, you would design what they have regurgitated from the beautiful lands of Bavaria. Imagine a billion sign posts to god-knows what. It’s like playing a game of snakes and ladders except that rolling a dice is replaced by walking hundreds of metres and hoping that you don’t run into a dead end. Good luck trying to find your check in desk.

"an hour to get through passport control"
John Dunnett (United Kingdom)
✅ Trip Verified | Worst airport experience ever. Upon arrival took over an hour to get through passport control, seemed like the people working in passport control took delighted in holding non Germans up Upon departure there is nothing good about this airport. Lack of signage at Terminal 1, long walk to get to departure gate, lack of toilets and the ones that were were dirty and busy, queues at the limited eating areas resulting in us getting nothing to eat. Will never come back through this airport (thought Turkey was bad but that was expected) actually felt like we were being treated like cattle

"change the departure gate last minute"
E Lansek (Germany)
✅ Trip Verified | It can change the departure gate last minute so you either end up running to the gates or miss the flight. This time I have passed the security gates and received the info that the flight would depart from K14 to which I proceeded immediately. Before sitting down I checked once more if the gate shown is still the same, which it was, both on the large announcement board and the small board at the gate. When it came to boarding, I was wondering as no announcement was made. At this point I realized that they have changed the gate within the last few minutes without announcement causing me to miss my flight. The initial gate was shown to be K14, according to the staff at the service desk it got changed to K6 and according to data sources such as flight radar and cirium the departure gate was K22. This airport is understaffed, staff doesn't like to work there and the signs and directions at the airport are horrendous. Terminal 1 is definitely the better terminal. Terminal 2 doesn't have plug sockets and only 2 what i don't even want to call a restaurant with limited choices of food.

"Passport department was crowded"
Fahd Salih (Saudi Arabia)
✅ Trip Verified | On arrival, immigration was smooth. We wait for baggage more than one hour to arrive, flight arrived 30 minutes after our arrival received baggage. On Departure, there were priority at security screening when I asked them they denied any priority and I have to take the line again. Passport department was crowded, and passenger bypass the line without any questions.

"airport is attractive and clean"
Richard Vines (United Kingdom)
✅ Trip Verified | I was just catching a connecting flight here and my first impressions were positive. The airport is attractive and clean. But it's let down by basic poor signage.

"urinal stalls were closed off"
C Mulder (Germany)
✅ Trip Verified | Long walking distances are made more difficult by poor signage. Today as we used the toilets before boarding our flight to Singapore we used the men‘s toilets near gate 31 and the urinal stalls were closed off. Several of the automatic towel dispensers were defect. The outside area bus stop was dirty with cigarette butts and stains in the ground from gum. The airport needs more charging stations for electronic devices at the departure areas.
