These new Airports in both Shanghai & Beijing are fabulous. They are attractive user friendly Airports with wide open spaces & a vast amount of amenities, particularly the new Beijing Airport. The only criticism I would make is that in Beijing your bags take an incredibly long time to arrive on the belt, this will be a problem during the Olympics & if they do not become more efficient in this area it is likely to cause chaos! I also noted that on flights within China people are frantically unbuckling their seatbelts & even standing up before the Aircraft has docked at the gate & certainly before the flight crew have announced that it is OK to do so. Perhaps the environment in these wonderful new Airports is designed to relax people, lets hope so with the throughput of people there in the next few weeks!!
