202 1- flight information-where is the connecting flight from China to the United States?

Many people will definitely choose to study in the United States soon, so the question now is, how to get to the United States? How to take domestic flights, which flights you can choose if you choose to transfer, and the procedures and information you need to take the flight.

List of tax exemption policies

The State Council announced on April 26th that starting from August 1, students with F/M visas will no longer be affected by the "ban on going to the United States" and can fly directly from China to the United States! On May 27th, official website and the State Council renewed Nie Luhua's visa-free qualification, which is in the national interest of the United States.

According to the policy:

The exemption area of NIE is extended to all countries/continents with travel bans, including China, Iran, India, Brazil, South Africa, Schengen, Britain and Ireland;

Eligible students (F- 1/M- 1 visa holders need to start school no earlier than August of 1 year and enter the United States no earlier than 30 days;

If you already have a visa and meet the specified date, you can go directly to the United States without contacting the embassy or consulate;

If you don't have a visa, you can go to the nearest American embassy or consulate to apply for a visa and go to the United States at the specified time;

Others are exempted from other national interests (humanitarian, public health, US national security, etc.). ). You can contact the American embassy or consulate to apply for Nie.

What is the cancellation of the flight?

Since the direct flight policy came out, the direct flights between China and the United States from the end of July to the end of September have risen to very high prices, and even some flights cannot be issued. So far, there are about 18 direct flights between China and the United States every week:

Monday and Tuesday MU587PVG-JFK

CZ327 can take off on Thursday and Saturday

MF829XMN International Airport Wednesday and Sunday

CA987PEK-LAX Sunday

CA769SZX-LAX Tuesday

Ua858PVG-ICN- San Francisco Monday Thursday Saturday Sunday

Dl288PVG-ICN- Thursday and Saturday at sea

DL284PVG-ICN-DTW Wednesday and Sunday

AA 128PVG-ICN-DFW Tuesdays and Fridays

However, it is very common for airlines to cancel flights due to epidemic prevention and control. Basically, since February this year, one flight has been cancelled every week. If you buy flights of domestic airlines (China Eastern Airlines/China Southern Airlines/Xiamen Airlines/Air China), you need to be prepared to be cancelled due to the epidemic. The law of cancellation is not very clear. Generally speaking, it is mainly a return flight. The possibility of air tickets going abroad being blown is relatively low. The recent cancellation of this wave of flights has puzzled many small partners:

On May 25th, CA769 Shenzhen-Los Angeles was cancelled.

On May 25th, CA770 Los Angeles-Shenzhen flight was cancelled.

On May 29th, CA327 Guangzhou-Los Angeles was cancelled.

On May 30th, flight CZ328 from Los Angeles to Guangzhou was cancelled.

June 14 MU588 new york-Shanghai cancelled.

On June 22nd, CA769 Shenzhen-Los Angeles was cancelled.

On June 22nd, CA770 Los Angeles-Shenzhen flight was cancelled.

On June 24th, CZ327 Guangzhou-Los Angeles was cancelled.

On June 25th, CZ328 Los Angeles-Guangzhou flight was cancelled.

But from the introduction of the above flights, we should be able to feel that the capacity of direct flights is simply not enough.

As we all know, Zoom University has studied for so long, the online work of the 2020 session and the voice of the 202 1 session. During the epidemic, the number of senior students who return to study in the United States must complete their studies. It is conservatively estimated that there are about 200,000 students. After the epidemic is stabilized, these students need to fly to the United States.

Either you can't get a direct flight or the price is really high. Comparatively speaking, although the turnaround is relatively slow, it is a good choice when the epidemic situation is gradually controlled.

transfer line

There are many routes to connect with America. At present, the route chosen by friends is 10. Although direct flights are not easy to buy, all transit flights lead to the United States. The 10 line mentioned here is mainly suitable for small partners who return to school in July-10 and the United States. They are:

Although it sounds complicated, it is not difficult to fly in practice. At the same time, the ticket issuing of transit routes is stable, even if some routes transit, it is extremely convenient because of the short transit time. When we choose a connection route, let's talk about basic considerations:

Get a shot of vaccine and two shots before going to America;

Make travel arrangements

Make an adequate budget and carry some cash with you in case of emergency (especially in some areas, airport nucleic acid testing can only accept cash, not credit cards.

Let's talk about the first three routes today, Singapore, Japan and Hong Kong.
