Yes it is a pain in the rear. But it is said that the current 10 Air China's A350 is based in Shanghai and owned by Air China Southwest. Thus you see A350 on current PVG-LGW/MUC/FRA/MXP routes. To have PEK guaranteed to have A350 on any long haul routes you really need to wait for the fleet shuffle happening or when the new A350 arrives with the next batch of 20.
