Gate E29 at PEK just moments before boarding commenced It was only until I had nearly reached the gate entrance that I noticed a line for premium passengers on the other side of the desk. I thought it was odd that there wasn’t an elite or first/business class line, but thought nothing much of it and just waited my turn. A single long line formed quickly, and by the time I queued up, it was obvious I would be in the last 25% to board. Seat: 13C (business) Air China 777-300/ER B-2085 Wandering around the Beijing airport was great – it’s big and bright with huge windows Waiting for the flight to board Departure information board showing my flight to LAXīoarding was called about 15 minutes late, with one single announcement stating that boarding had started. The pic at the top of this post is one such example – which just so happens to be the exact plane I took to LAX. It wasn’t so easy to do because of the severe reflections on the terminal windows, but I did manage to grab a few nice shots. That left me with about an hour to kill before boarding would begin for my connecting flight to LAX, so I wandered the terminal for a while taking pics. There weren’t any lines to speak of this time, and I was through the checkpoints within 15 minutes. I’m not going to lie when I tell you that I was getting really excited about flying Air China business class for the first time! Thankfully, getting through the transfer procedure at Beijing was super-fast compared to several days before when I was en route to Seoul.
