I gave it one star because I couldn t give it none.
We made a reservation st a hotel in a Beijing so we could sleep and sightsee during our over 21 hour layover There is a 72 entry to Beijing without a visa
Well NOBODY at the airport knows this or pretends not to. Almost every employee was RUDE. All they d say is NO OUT! When we asked how to get out They made up answers when found to be lying. They told us that for the 7/ hour entrance your next flight had to be in over 24 hours. Not true. They kept sending us upstairs to a place where we were locked in. No up or down.excrpt for staff
We asked what we are supposed to do for over 21 hours. They said NO OUT. Not to mention my friend is a smoker and asked where she could have a cigarette. All they d say is NO!
We stayed in the airport. My friend and I got separated. I asked everyone to page her. I was sent from one place to another. Finally I was told NO ANNOUNCEMENT! The woman said call her. Great if she didn t have my phone
After 14 hours I found there is a hotel IN the airport. VERY EXPENSIVE But well needed
They did offer 3 meals. But didn t tell us about them
10:35PM our plane took off. I was never so happy to leave a place as there
I almost forgot. When anyone checking your bags found anything they thought shouldn t be there. they d grab it and toss it behind them saying LIGHTER, NO! Could have said something more to the tone of Sorry no lighters. But of course I didn t expect it after all the wonderful care If had so far.
