I believe you have 6 months after the visa has been approved to move to the US before the visa will expire. However, since your petition was just approved recently (your visa has not been approved until you have an interview at the consulate,) you will likely still have 3 months or so (give or take a couple weeks) until you are on the waiting list for an interview, so that should give you more than enough time to tie up loose ends.

words of wisdom......never book your flight until you have the visa and your passport in your hands. Take it from me, I know.
