Shanghai - (Pudong) Hong Kong 21DEC03 21DEC03 KA899 PVG-HKG Date: 21DEC03 Airline: DragonairFlight: KA899 Aircraft: Airbus Industrie A321-231 Registration: B-HTH Seat: 22F- Economy Class Loading: 93% Departure Bay: 28 Scheduled Departure Time: 1215 Actual Departure Time: 1214 Departure Runway: 35 Estimated Arrival Time: 1455 Arrival Runway: 07L Actual Arrival Time: 1425 Arrival Bay: N30R Flight Time: 1 Hour 38 Minutes Block Time: 2 Hours 14 Minutes Flight Mileage: 850nm Cruising Altitude: FL334 *There is no time difference between Shanghai and Hong Kong. Having arrived into Shanghai Pudong airport by car, we walked down the ramp into the check-in area only finding the signs on the ramp do not really correspond to the actual check-in counter locations. Anyhow, we got to Dragonair's check-in desks and my aunt being a Platinum Elite club member, we didn't have the queue up since there were dedicated counters. Check-in was not exactly quick as there were some 'faults' with the boarding pass printer... (not all lines on the boarding pass could be printed... including the flight number...) Anyway, the check-in agent (MU staff) hand written the missing bits in (but not the sequence number ><). Again, I requested for the exit window seat, although knowing the window problem. I also got an invitation to the KA lounge because of my aunt's membership status. Before going through immigration controls, we had to fill in a health declaration form and buy the airport construction fee. Immigration and security checks were relatively swift and we got to the lounge with some time to spare. Having had some refreshments, I used the computer and shortly afterwards, boarding was called. Boarding took a while as the queue was quite long when I got there. Anyhow, I got to my seat and took some photos etc... Service onboard this flight was towel service then lunch then inflight sales. Photos are as follows.

Lunch.
Ice-cream
dessert =D.
This KA flight was
good. Cabin crews and flight deck crews were friendly. The meal on this
flight was better than the ones to Shanghai, although the ice-cream was
still frozen rock hard... This site is only intended for private usage. Please note that this is not an official airline website nor is it endorsed by any airlines concerned.
