As indicated above... from a backup source, which most use a USB connection.
New Mac's have USBC/Thunderbolt: USB-C to USB Adapter - Apple
The most trouble free way to move to a new machine, is using the Setup Assistant on the initial boot of a brand new machine— you have one shot here. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT205749
If that opportunity has past, the second best way is use the Migration Assistant.

By using Migration Assistant, on your new notebook, to access one of your old MacBook's Time Machine backups.
