When flying from the US to Beijing, you may need to connect through a gateway city in the US whose airport has direct flights to Beijing. Such airports are listed here:
- HNL (Honolulu International Airport) in Hawaii
- DTW (Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport) in Michigan
- SEA (Seattle Tacoma International Airport) in Washington
- SFO (San Francisco International Airport) in California
- JFK (John F Kennedy International Airport) in New York
- BOS (General Edward Lawrence Logan International Airport) in Massachusetts
- ORD (Chicago O’Hare International Airport) in Illinois
- EWR (Newark Liberty International Airport) in New Jersey
- DFW (Dallas Fort Worth International Airport) in Texas
- LAX (Los Angeles International Airport) in California
- IAD (Washington Dulles International Airport) in District Of Columbia
Unless you live nearby one of the gateway cities listed above, you will probably first need a domestic flight to that hub airport. From that hub you would then take a non-stop flight to Beijing to complete your flight from the USA to China. An international arrival airport in Beijing is PEK (Beijing Capital International Airport).
It is also sometimes possible to create an itinerary from a US city to Beijing which connects through an airport in another country, but for many travelers flying from the United States that may mean two connections and a longer flight. Hope this page helped you in planning flights to Beijing.
