Hotel : Argyle, we were on the 9th floor (of a total of 12 floors)

Departed with C919 B-919D with flightnr MU9191 SHA-PKX

Beijing Daxing (PKX)
Tuesday 10sep24 + Wednesday 11sep24

NIL

Hotel : Fairfield by Marriott
Rooms : we were in room 8638, but all high floors facing airport would be OK

Took a taxi from PKX to PEK, via the biz area at PEK located at the NW side of the airport (90min drive approx EUR 50)
Only that area is not reachable anymore (all new buildings with security gates)
That's a pity as normally you could read off approx 10-15x biz at that part of the airport

RA-67228 / CL604 / 5613

Hotel : Cordis, Beijing Capital Airport by Langham Hospitality Group
Rooms : Any odd number between 6007-6049 would be OK. The lower the better, that would be the closest to the biz ramp

Kunming (KMG)
Saturday 14sep24 + Sunday 15sep24 + Monday 16sep24

NIL

Hotel : Best Yue Hang Hotel
Rooms: we were in 8828 but even numbers 8822-8828 + 8830-8836 would be fine as well
(there is a 9th floor as well but that seems to be all VIP rooms with room numbers not simular to the 8th floor)

B-8319 / A319 / 4956

Hotel : Pullman
Rooms : even rooms ending 06-32 on the 6th or 7th floor are all good
Note : due to terminal extentions taxiways (both sides) and/or the cargo FX ramp are not visible anymore
(so basically only arrivals or departures depending runway use)

NIL

Hotel : Jinjiang Inn (the Sunway is closed for good)
Rooms : 1008 or 1010 are the ones you need (or 908 + 910, but the higher the better)
