Hi All,
I am going on a trip Melbourne (MEL) to Shanghai (PVG) early 2010, currently we are looking at J with Air China.
Anyone got any reviews they can share with this airline? I am choosing Air China because of:
1. Direct Flight;
2. Star Alliance - I am with KF, J should give me 1.25x miles;
3. Not Qantas.
Am I right to assume that I can use Air NZ lounge (Star Alliance Member traveling J)?
Lastly, I am torn between staying at Swissotel Grand Shanghai and Radisson New World. Anyone care to review those 2 hotels? I am there as a tourist, and looking for a nice spacious room, good facilities and easy walk/subway to the shopping area. (or any good suggestions will be welcome)
I stayed at Shangri-La Hotel before, it was good for business but horrible location for a tourist.
Thanks,
Joey
P.s. I have Club Swissotel membership, that's why I am leaning towards Swissotel.
