I did look at other places as well, and right now, despite the benefits of going to a place like Wuhan and Changsha (which were my first choices), I'm open on going to Nanning instead. Aside from award availability (snagged the last morning seat on NNG-SZX, and it's only 12,000 miles round-trip), it looks like it also has a number of interesting things to do. (I'm trying to get KWL too, but for some reason it's not pricing correctly.)

(Don't worry: I'm saving Beijing for later. )
Like what? I'm living here now and haven't really gotten out much apart from meetings because I melt in the sun.
