Answer

The difference lies in the time of completion. Simple future tense implies you will arrive in New York on Monday. Future continuous tense does not carry that meaning necessarily.

Answer

They both mean exactly the same thing. If you want to give the impression that you will arrive in NY on Monday then you would have to revise your sentences. he reason is, as they stand the sentences could mean you are flying to NY on Monday but could possibly land on Tuesday.
