Pudong Airport Maglev in Depth I just returned from China, having spent the summer teaching English in Hangzhou, Long You and Xiang Shan. This was the most memorable time of my life. I have dreamed of going to China since I started my martial arts training back in 1968. Well, I finally got there and learned an authentic Qigong sytem from ZheJiang province. An elderly gentleman taught me in the Zhezjiang University campus over my stay on the mainland. Teaching young brilliant Chinese minds was also an inspiring moment. The icing on the cake was "mag-Lev", which I used for four days while I partied in Shanghai. I stayed at the JinJiang Inn at the airport, only because I couldn't get a room at Ramada. it was booked solid. anyway, each day I took the maglev into town. I got there in 6 minutes. What a ride!!! It is well worht the fare, because a cab would be about 50RMB or more. Hell, I got taken in the first day by a cab driver who charged me 80 RMB just to go to my hotel from the airport. About a 5 minute drive. Beware of cabbies!!! Make sure they activate the meter, or you're in for a rip-off. Sorry, Welcome to Shangahi!! Anyway, I had a fabulous time in China, and between mag lev and the great subway system at LongYang Lu, travel around Shanghai is sooooo easy. Hail Mag-Lev or "Ci xuan fu lie che"...as it is affectionately called in Shanghai. When in Shanghai, visit the Literature Club down on 677 Julu Lu. Fanny speakes English if your Chinese is not operating. Or go down to goodfell's at 905 Julu Lu. the folks there speak English as well. Theses clubs are in the Jing An district. It's stop on the #2 subway from LongYang Lu, the only stop of mag lev after it leaves the airport. Have fun. I did. This is a great site. thanks for the post. |

House of Flying Daggers (or Shi Mian Mai Fu) I've been told that throughout Shanghai, this is the only movie allowed to be played in theatres for a few weeks, guess Zhang Yimou has some important friends somewhere. |

Flying to Beijing Again I think the gov't has imposed limits now on discounts carriers can give. I'm not sure about the numbers, but there are standard ticket prices for each route, and different carriers can give either a certain +/- percentage. I think it's 40% maximum discount and 25% maximum over the standard price. |

Heavy Rain Yesterday I'm planning to go to HK in August, can you give me more info about that package? I live about 10 minutes walk from Metro City, so it'd be easy for me to pick one up if I knew where they are. Thanks! |

Bill Mao Have you seen how you can fold the 100 RMB bill with Mao's face into a happy face or a sad face? If you'd like, I can email it to you. |

New Issue of City Weekend In this month's issue of that's Shanghai, they mention why they're not in Starbucks. Apparently Starbucks only allows magazines into their establishment if they give them free advertising in return, which goes against that's Shanghai's policy. There's also a new (sort of) magazine called Voyage, which is an English-language travel magazine found in four and five star hotels throughout China. I also happen to work there, so there's my plug. |

Public Transportation in Shanghai One tip when swiping your way through the subway turnisle, make sure the person in front of you is through before you put your card on the sensor. Many people have inadverdantly paid for the person in front of them when they put the card on the sensor too early. |

Arrive in Beijing on Delayed Flight Even if 'Acts of God' don't merit monetary compensation, one drink every two hours and a cookie just don't cut it for customer service. |

Arrive in Beijing on Delayed Flight I can't help but smile at what the airlines gave you, almost like rewarding a little boy for being patient and not complaining. I think if you brought it up, you should've been able to get a rebate. There are guidelines for cash reimbursements depending on how long you waited, and I would guess you could have gotten quite a bit. |

Arrive in Beijing on Delayed Flight Did you receive any compensation for the delay? I've read that domestic airlines in China now follow a 'Punctuality Guideline' that specifies reimbursement for delays etc. |

Frequently Used Phone Numbers in Shanghai Thanks for the info, there's been so many times that me and my wife have been so frustrated but unsure what we can do. Now we know how to get more information. It's too bad customer service isn't that well developed in China yet. |
