For trips to outport particularly PRC unless I've liquid with me I will definitely handcarry my bag on. For PEK and PVG the earlier you get out the more likely you can grab a taxi, particularly for night departures
p.s. I also fly EY for business... But why I always have stuff scheduled within 2 hours of STA....
Again I am blessed. Most of my flying are personal trips. When I do duty travel, it normally long-haul EY. That means I don't have to return to the office, nor I need to meet any client.
5 mins to 30 min wait, sitting at baggage claim is nothing. After all, you already a DM, your bags will arrive within 5 mins. Again, no fuss, no rush....
Of late, I find the CX Arrival lounge to be pretty good. I always thought making use of my Arrival pass is a waste of time....Woh!! It's a pretty good place to have a nice hot bowl of noodles or have some fruits. Another good 30 mins to waste.
