PEK Internatioal EXIT changes
S'been a while since I flew internationally out of PEK, and there's a few things that have changed.
Used to be:
1 Check-In
2 Train to T3E
3 Immigration Inspection
4 Security
It is now:
1 Check-In
2 Security
3 Train to T3E
4 Health Quarantine (QR code)
5 Immigration Inspection
6 Security Lite: only full bag scan
Overall okay, but a bit longer lines that I am used to from back pre-2020.
Some of these seems temporary and not permanent.
The train is now split into Domestic and International carriages. Domestic doors open at T3D. This is not ideal because the domestic carriages are pretty much empty and the international ones are chock full.
Just a FWIW...
...oh, and I thought I was special as I was told at check-in I could use the CA First Class lounge....turns out the Business Class lounge is closed! 😀
