Beijing, China to New York City is an approximately 18-hour flight. You'll gain 13 hours traveling from Beijing to New York City due to the time zone difference. Traveling from Beijing in September, plan for somewhat warmer nights in New York City, with lows around 22°C. You will leave for New York City on the 4th (Fri).

Start off your visit on the 4th (Fri): stroll around Central Park and then appreciate the history behind 9/11 Memorial. Keep things going the next day: get interesting insight from Sea the City Jet Ski Tours, wander the streets of Times Square, and then wander the streets of Fifth Avenue.
