I am finally back on Chinese soils, after 23 years when I first visited Shanghai as a teen. Since the pandemic, intense lockdowns have made it difficult to visit China.
Now that borders are reopened and flight prices have subsided, I decided to make a trip to China for sightseeing and chillaxing.
This is a budget trip with promotional Singapore Airline flight at $277 round trip per pax and 3 star accommodation for $200 over 5 nights.
I get to experience the impeccable service of Singapore Airlines. Watching Euro match between Slovakia and England on a plane while sipping Singapore Sling at 36000 feet above ground in the skies is something so surreal. There is also free Wifi for economy passenger with Krisflyer membership. Supper and dessert are sumptuous too.
This is a fully digital payment immersion in China as we went cashless totally by equipping with Alipay and WeChat apps linked to Youtrip, OCBC app for scanning UnionPay...
