My flight was an hour early which was surprising. The flight was also not full and so i had two seats to myself and managed to get a little sleep. All in all China Eastern were very good. The food was OK and the red wine helped me sleep. 

When I arrived I sailed through customs and was through in about 20 mins. Danny picked me up and luckily he and Maria had checked the flight arrival time earlier and saw that it was running early or I could have been waiting for some time. 

The weather was warm and sunny and did not feel like winter at all, so much for packing the thermals.
