PVG Layover
Just a heads up for anyone going to PVG.
The hotel is an absolute mess. Slimly, most disgusting hotel I think I've ever been in. The Covid procedures are a mess, no one in Shanghai knows what is going on day to day. It changes hourly.
The Chinese gov is dictating foreign crews stay in this pit. Don't do it. I will not be going back. Fair warning, the crew desk has been taking some innocuous trips, (I was supposed to go to ICN,) and changing them to PVG. That's how I got this turd.
FSAP'ed and PDR'd. I have not heard anything back from any of my reps or ALPA. My guess is it's hitting the fan about now, hopefully the system is in the process. We should not be flying to PVD as long as the Chinese gov insists layovers be in this hotel. Da Zhong Airport Hotel Shanghai. This layover is starting to show up a lot in trip trading--as in out of.
Just as a small example, the water at the hotel is not safe to drink. REally? ALPA?? MEC?? Safety??
