I will ping you my land line # & email. I am NOT addicted to my various cell #'s, and seldom answer them, as they are mostly spam calls.

If you can, get the van license plate #, and the drivers cell #. It will take you about 40 minutes to an hour to clear passport control and gather your luggage in T2, or T3. T2 is abet easier and much more friendly for a van pick up.
Thanks for the tips and the PM Jiatong. I found out that my boss has borrowed a van and will be coming to pick me up himself -- very nice of him -- albeit completely unecessary. However, I think insisting on a no would probably be a no-no etiquette-wise.

Look forward to catching up once we're in BJ.
