Am I able to go home?
Is it the first wave of global warning hitting China? Right now my biggest concerns are:
- My flight from Paris CDG airport need to land Shanghai PVG airport on Jan 31. A friend of mine flying earlier from UK to Beijing landed Ji’nan instead… God bless me to land Shanghai safely.
- I need to go home for the Chinese new year which is the Western equivalent of Christmas. My flight is on Feb 4. After the plane lands, I need to take a bus to my hometown which is about 130 KM from the airport. Right now the airport in Changsha is closed, and will be closed for 96 hours in total, affect almost 10 K passengers. Highways closed too. Fingers crossed. I need to fly on that day then take a bus home…
