An intresting trick question. More than likely a plane leaving Chicago, IL U.S.A. and going to Shanghai, China would take a polar route. This would be the most optimal route and the best logistically for the plane to travel. A polar route would reduce distance due the curvature of the Earth, and it is much safer to use a polar route, because it would significantly increase the amount of land that the plane would fly over and significantly reduce open ocean flying. Finally, to answer the trick question - the Arctic Ocean.
That was in 1928 when she flew as the first woman passenger to cross the Atlantic.
The flight route from San Francisco to Shanghai typically involves flying eastward over the Pacific Ocean, passing over Japan before reaching Shanghai in China. This route is approximately 6,200 miles and takes about 12-14 hours non-stop.
That depends on where you're coming from to go to Shanghai. No wait ! On second thought, it doesn't even depend on that. No matter where you're starting from, you can travel in either one of two opposite directions and wind up in Shanghai. That's because the Earth is spherical (shaped like a ball). So . . . -- Regardless of where you are when you start out, you always have a choice of two directions for your trip to Shanghai. -- One direction is a longer trip, and the other direction is a shorter one. -- In one direction, you'll cross the International Dateline on your way to Shanghai. In the other direction, you won't.
You would cross the Atlantic Ocean to go from London to New York City.
Pacific
If you travel from Shanghai to Auckland, you will cross the Pacific Ocean. This journey typically involves flying or sailing southeast across the vast expanse of the ocean, which is the largest and deepest ocean on Earth. The Pacific Ocean separates Asia from Australia and New Zealand, making it a significant route for international travel.
You cross the northern part of the Atlantic ocean.

Shanghai was located on the ocean as well as a river.

Chicago is closer to the Atlantic Ocean
Probably "on the ocean." "Shang" (fourth tone) means on or above, and "hai," (third tone) means "ocean." Since Shanghai is a seaport, it makes sense.
Halfway between New York, NY and Shanghai, China are the islands of Hawaii!! If you're not flying over the Pacific Ocean, then I would recommend Rome, Italy.
She received that in 1932 for her solo flight across the Atlantic in the 'Little Red Bus'.
Indian ocean you cross the Indian ocean to get to the other side
