TSN/PEK to NYC, who to fly with?
Hi all, I am planning a family trip and I am flying out of EWR to China, and then return.
I plan to book EWR-HKG-PVG on CX J, since there are 5 business award seats that open up. However, on the return, I'd like to fly back from TSN or PEK (TSN prefered) into NYC (EWR prefered) but don't know which *A partner to fly with. I am booking with UA miles.
I know EVA offers good business product, but I must book the flight 10-11 months out. I cannot wait until a few months before departure. Then I looked into TSN-ICN-JFK, but an overnight connection is involved at ICN, and I strongly prefer not to do that. Also PEK-NRT-ORD-EWR, but that's too many connections.
Any recommendations on how I can get from TSN/PEK to NYC? I prefer not to have overnight connections and prefer not to fly in/out at odds hours (late night/early morning).
Thanks in advance!

The best one I see is TK PEK-IST 00:10 - 05:25 connecting to TK IST-JFK 07:25 - 11:20.
Both involve late night/early morning departures, though.
Edit: Sorry, how about AC PEK-YYZ 18:05-18:50, then connect to AC
flight departing 8:35PM/8:45 PM/8:50 PM - 1 each to LGA/EWR/JFK.

What about CA non stop between PEK and JFK?

Thanks. And my hat off to you for having no preference when it comes to flying. I don't like odd hours because I have elderly in my group. I don't want to fly UA because... well.. If you're redeeming 60k+ for biz would your first choice be UA?

I cannot seem to find a lot of availability for two award seats on NRT-JFK, PEK-JFK, PEK-IST-JFK... What's the easiest way to fly from PEK to NYC (preferably EWR) for two award tickets? I would prefer to fly on an Asian or European carrier.
Another caveat is I have to book as far in advance as possible. So I cannot wait until a few weeks before to fly PEK-FRA-EWR on LH.
