Shanghai

Hello all,

I've read the wiki and believe I understand the 72 hour rules, but I wanted to "make sure" I have this correct.

I am flying from the USA, to Taipei, from Taipei onward to Hong Kong, from Hong Kong onward to Shanghai (under 72 hours in Shanghai), then on to Taipei for the return back to the USA. The way I read the rules, since Hong Kong is considered a "third country," I believe I should be ok.

All of these flights will be on the same itinerary, with the exception of my flight from Hong Kong to Shanghai (different alliance). I will have everything printed out to show the onward third country (Taiwan) from Shanghai.

Do I have this correct? Thanks so much.
