 Flying KLM by filipdebont My trip started with a 4 hour train trip from Belgium towards Schiphol, Amsterdam, Holland. From Schiphol, Amsterdam we had a direct flight with KLM to Beijing, China. At first the travel agency had said we would fly with Lufthansa via Frankfurt, Germany. Anyway I was happy when I heard that they changed it into a direct flight. Flight time was about 9 hours. It was a good flight, and there was plenty of beer on board. Leave a Comment

We traveled Hainan Airlines to Beijing. Hainan had just begun international flights to Seattle this year. The plane was a brand new Airbus. And what a delight! We benefited from very reasonable air fares, excellent service and great Chinese food. One of most interesting items on the whole flight were the directions (or hints) the airline imparted for a more comfortable flight. They were included as one of the video selections. I took pictures of the screen and hope to have those up soon. It can definitely spark some lively discussion. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

There are many local carriers in China, air network is generally speaking quite good and it is one of the most important way of transportation. The quality of local airlines are not bad, safe/reliable/ good service /relatively new aircraft. The air fare can be very cheap in some season when traffic is not busy, Beijing-Shanghai one way can get 50% discount for 1:30 flight time, which is about RMB500, just give you an idea. I would suggest you arrange your internal flight locally, for sure you get better price than you buy it in your country! Have a nice trip! Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

 Over the North Pole with UAL by calcaf38 I'm the kind who likes to try foreign carriers: the vacation starts that much earlier. But from any of the nearby airports (MDT - EWR - IAD), United was invariably faster and cheaper to Beijing. So I booked with them, unenthusiastically. Well, those flights were T-E-R-R-I-F-I-C! On time, and with excellent and attentive service. Good luck United! Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

Hummm...what to say about Air China. I've flown worse but I've definatly flown better. The plane was a little beat up...there were plastic shopping bags stuffed above the windows...I think to plug the cold air from the air conditioner. Didn't instill confidence but probably looked worse than it was. They were on schedule , service was good and food OK. The price was competive. Theme: AirplaneWebsite: www.airchina .com

 Air China 747 by MikeAtSea I flew to Beijing from Shanghai with Air China. The airline operated a Boeing 747 which was not the newest. The in-flight service was almost as if designed by Mao himself – hence not the most spectacular airline I have ever flown with. Maybe things will change as China opens more and more to tourism. However Air China have the largest network of flights within the PR China. Leave a Comment

 The Great Wall from the air by Saagar Coming in from the west (Europe, Middle East) on a flight to Beijing the flight path normally takes you over Siberia and Mongolia. Thus as you approach Beijing and you cross the last rugged hills northwest of the city you may see the Great Wall down below. Quite impressive, and gives you a hint of what's awaiting you below.

by Yubert If you're flying over from the US, the flight is long, around 15 hours. So fly business class. The stewardeess-to-passenger ratio is much higher and there's less people compteting for the use of the restroom. We flew on China Eastern which provided personal DVD players (Business Class) for in-flight entertainment. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

by shafinah Air Travel into Beijing international is the best way to go. Beware: Air china allows smoking on it's flights - very bad for people w/allergies/asthma/general distaste for secondhand smoke. Request that your travel guide meet you at customs so that you don't have a hard time meeting up. I highly recommend a tour guide w/a bus. Your travel agent should be able to arrange something for you. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus
