Travel from China to US?

I have a friend who is a heart patient and cannot fly. So my question is "Is there an alternative way of travel from China to US by ship or any other means". ?

You dont say just what heart problem he has First . he would need clearance from his doctor, then plans could be made if the doctor agreed he could travel. good luck bettyk

You can always travel by ship. Some cargo ships carry passengers (but it might get boring).
