MemberCheryl, thanks for the info. Looking forward to hearing about it, also will try and find the airport arrivals and deps as you suggested, Roger
Roger
MemberCheryl, how about a trip report on how the overnight at Chengdu goes and any hints you may have after having done it, thanks, Roger
ps and the views enroute to KTM, stopping for one hr in Lhasa?, my flight does….which side of plane might be best from Chengdu to Lhasa and Lhasa to KTM…
Roger
MemberMore good news! Thanks, guys…you guys have really helped me on this and provided the info to make my decison. Roger
Roger
MemberOK, now THAT info really settles it and is good to hear….thanks again you guys….Roger
I am looking forward to this routing as the flight apparently includes a one hr stop over at Lhasa while continuing on to KTM. So anticpating super views of the Himals.
Roger
MemberJustin and Charlie…thanks again, that is good to hear…at the risk of beating this to death…with a 11:00pm arrival, prob last flight in, will I be herded along with others thru whatever (customs?) or ‘out the door’ as I assume 99% of the rest of the passangers WIll want a hotel, or does it seem reasonable that I can break out alone and try and find this upstairs place w/o causing a stir or having the local authorities wanting to usher me along with everyone else either trying to ‘help me’ or just ‘expecting’ me to leave. Thanks again…boy, I am out of my element here….had this been about Nepal I’d be right at home but China is new to me and I have read a lot of things that give me pause, especially as I have zero language.

MemberBummer, just received an email from very expereinced American tour operator who has run tours in China for yrs and yrs…he was unsure on Chengdu airport hours so he emailed his associate travel operator in Chengdu. That guy says airport will be closed at night and security will kick you out….so somewhat of a dilemma….are you guys, above, absolutely sure based on recent experience that the aiport is open and I can hang out upstairs as mentioned above….thanks, Roger
Don’t mean to question anyones’ input, just trying to resolve conflicting info…..
Roger
Memberthanks for the confirmation and info….
Roger
Memberthis would be true….
Roger
MemberThanks for the info…that is what I needed to know…not to be forced out and have to get a hotel, good news, Roger
Ps,any one, what do the characters under my name signify…is it a pronouciation of my name? Does it have a meaning?
