From Amsterdam to Shanghai  I flew with KLM. It was a nine hour flight.  The services were impeccable. They gave us three meals, deserts and any kind of drinks(water, juice, coffee, milk, wine, wiskey, vodka and cocktails). From now on, KLM will always be my first choice.

I never knew exactly the speed and the altitude a passenger plane can get, but I found out during that flight. At one point the plane had 970km/h speed, at 12000m altitude.

My first step in China was in Shanghai, Pudong airport. My next plane to Dalian was in two hours and I couldn’t even leave the airport.

The airport is incredibly huge. It has two terminals. I landed on a terminal and the plane to Dalian was leaving from the other terminal, So I had to take a bus.  A good thing is that most of the airport employees know English(I had to ask about 5-6 persons to get to my next flight and all knew enough English to understand my questions and to answer).

Here are a few inside pictures of the Pudong airport:
