How long does it take to get from New York to France?

New York and Paris are 3,628 miles apart. With a direct flight, it's likely to take about 7 1/2 hours to get to Paris from New York. Add in a plane change and that could take a lot longer. For example, a five-hour layover in Amsterdam will take more than five hours extra because a flight from New York to Amsterdam takes about 7 1/2 hours then it's another 90-minute flight from Amsterdam to Paris.
