so that they could contact me if there was any problems with customs; otherwise they would transfer the bags without my presence.
3) I went through arrival immigration, then proceeded to domestic departures and security check.
4) I was not contacted about my luggage, and picked it up on arrival in XMN.
That was really helpful. My concern though, is that I will probably not have a China SIM while deboarding at KMG. (I think I will be able to buy it after landing at KMG airport?)
