Flight Options & Arrival Information

Please keep in mind you MUST arrive in Shanghai on February 2, and you are responsible for booking your own flight. You may check into the residence after 12pm. Housing is available only for the dates of the program (February 2 – May 27, 2017) so if you plan to arrive early or leave late, please be aware you will be responsible for your own accommodations.  You can access the program calendar here.

When shopping for flights, you are welcome to use any provider of your choice, but we encourage you to use NYU’s preferred partner, Egencia, to buy your ticket. Please see the following Egencia instructions for info on how to book your flight through Egencia.

Many flights leave the night before and will likely arrive in the morning.  Be sure to book a flight that lands in Shanghai on February 2 LOCAL TIME AND DATE. You may want to keep this in mind when you are booking flights; however, a detailed Arrival Cheat Sheet will be provided closer to departure and this will give clear instructions on how to navigate the airport and get to the residence. NYU Shanghai site staff will be providing shuttle service from Pudong International Airport (PVG) on February 2. Check back here for a time frame, which is subject to flight arrivals, so make sure to submit your flight information later in the semester!

Please note:  All students will be required to submit their flight details closer to departure.  Instructions for doing so will come later on in the semester!
