I recently moved and brought my Bonsai over. It took over two weeks of traveling and finally today I got it, quickly watered and placed on window. Thoughts? Did it survive? Tips on what to do? Thinking of repotting as well, should I? Please also recommend soil mixes for my Ficus. Thank you!

We cannot tell if it survived or not, you just need to wait and see.

I would not repot a ficus in the middle of the winter. And not after stress from moving.

It is impossible for us to say whether it has survived without a picture.

Travelling will have been a lot of stress for the tree so just give it standard care and see how it responds over the next few weeks.
Repotting is especially stressful and doing so now will likely kill your tree.

There is plenty of good information about caring for your tree at the top of the page under Tree species > Ficus Bonsai
