Don't Do This When Flying to CHINA 🇨🇳

Video Description

We are flying to Shanghai China, for the FIRST TIME! Well, sort of... we want to travel to Shanghai, the biggest city in China, but, we actually booked a transfer flight, via Shanghai, to Beijing. We booked a transfer flight because the cost was half the price (despite the extra flight, make it make sense!). We are hoping we can get off in Shanghai and collect our bags, meaning we would have saved around £300 each! This is our long and slightly stressful travel day, as we fly from London, UK, to Shanghai, China for the first time! We are aiming to travel across China for at least the next 3 months. It is a country that gets a lot of negative attention in the western media, and despite its rich, ancient culture and history, it doesn't get many western tourists either. We want to explore some of the lesser known areas of this massive misunderstood country, and break a few stereotypes people may have about China. But to start our journey, we want to explore Shanghai, the economic & business centre of the country and the beating heart of China!
