Mr.Frankie replied:
From Changchun to Harbin: there are many trains for your choice. The fastest train takes no more than 2 hours on the way.
From Harbin to Beijing: please take a flight to Beijing Capital Airport directly. Both of the train and bus will take a long time.

Mr.James replied:
If you want to get the train from Shanghai to Changchun, you should go to Shanghai Railway Station. Pudong Airport bus Line 5 can take you to the train station and needs about 1.5 hours. If you want to tavel faster, you can take maglev train (within 10 minutes)to Longyang Road, change to Subway Line 2 to People's Square and then change to Line 1 to Shanghai Railway Station (half a hour or so). There are two trains there running to Changchun, K56(9:27am), K516 (11:10am), the ticket price is about 450RMB for hard sleeper, 680-700RMB for soft sleeper. The whole journey takes 30 hour. You can check the fligh info, if the price is not high for you, you can consider to travel by air.

Do you mean Jilin city or Jilin Province. There is not fligts info from Beijing to Jilin City. Beijing to Changchun (the capital city of Jilin Province)flights are easy found. Time is about 1 hour 40 minutes. Beijing has flight to Chifeng and Hohhot of Inner Mongolia. No idea if there are flights from Jilin. Hope it helps more or less. :)

Mr.Lee replied:
Last July, the Jilin Branch of Southern Airlines commenced a nonstop direct service linking Hong Kong with Changchun. The round-trip flights operate once a week, on Thursdays. Previously, there were direct flights between Hong Kong and Changchun. Later, the route changed to Changchun-Changsha-Hong Kong airway, which continues flights on Tuesdays and Saturdays.There are now three two-way flights per week operating between the two places. The nonstop service cuts travel time by one hour and twenty minutes.
