We were given the Aulympic Airport Hotel and Yuanhang Airport Hotel which are about 15 minutes from the airport via a free shuttle bus. This is available for both Economy and Business Class. One can choose from choice of:Īs I had only 18 hours in Beijing, I decided to go for transit hotel.
The criteria for the free layover hotel is that this is not a code share flight and the transit time need to be between 8 to 30 hours.Īir China offers free transit amenity for those transiting in Beijing International Airport between 8 to 30 hours. Business Class passengers will be entitled to a better hotel. One advantage of this is that you are entitled to a free layover hotel in one of the many airport hotels (not connected to the airport btw). By default, the recommended flight will be the red eye flight but you can choose the morning flight to avoid the red eye sector. At only $2.8k for 6 person, this is an excellent price as the price for Singapore Airlines for the same date came up to $9.2k! Top up another $400 and you can get yourself on Air China Business class which frankly is not a bad deal.Īir China has 3 flights from Singapore to Beijing. My recently concluded family trip to Fukuoka was on Air China via Beijing. After trying out the Air China First Class from Houston to Panama City, here comes Air China in Economy Class on both regional and short haul flight.
