    ... until the car pickes me up from the hotel. On the way back to the good ole USA after another disappointing trip to China. Every time I come here, I question further the decision to build a training center in Xian China. The only company making out like a bandit with this deal is American Airlines! My AAdvantage account continues to grow.

    First/Worst leg of the journey is over. That is the flight from Xian to Shanghai. Although it is the shortest leg, 1 hr 55 min, China Eastern airlines makes SouthWest Airlines look like a private jet. Got two hours to kill in the 1st slass lounge before boarding AA flight 288 for the 14 hour business class snooze fest.

    The horse can smell the barn but he can't hear the flying music until he gets out of this youtube blocked country.
