Day 1 Friday from Frankfurt to Shanghai

It's very good that we start on Friday at 3 PM in Frankfurt. This way I can have a leisurely breakfast, pack my things, and walk to the airport (1km). The flight departs from Terminal 2. I'm not a frequent flyer, and I'm surprised at how large the airport is and how many people are here.

From 11:30 AM, the fellow travelers start to arrive; we are 9 in total. Check-in takes 1 hour because quite a few people want to board the plane😅

The security check goes surprisingly quickly and after a standing coffee, it's boarding time.

The flight lasts 9 hours✈️. We arrive on Saturday at 1:30 AM European time, here it is 7:30 AM.

Then onward flight to Xian.
