Thank you!! I am prepared to extremely overprepared!! And wow that immigration line - yikes. Will try to mentally prepare for that as well. Hoping this trip is great, seems like a lot of logistics! (I just came from Cuba last week and that seemed easier!!)

Eeek yikes,
Can you elaborate, was it at the airport you
had issues? Is there anything you would recommend to have with you - I will have print outs of my paid in full itinerary, hotel reservations, confirmation from airline about the 144 hour visa rule, page from the consulates website (in Chinese) about the 144 hour ...anything else you would recommend? What specific difficulties did you encounter? I don’t have time to get a visa because I cant be without my passport between now and when I sail - so for me it’s a go / don’t go decision Not a get visa / don’t get visa decision!
Thank you!

I have a question:
Flying into Shanghai evening before cruise
All ports are in Japan
Fly out the day we return to Shanghai
Do I qualify for 144 transit ? I assume 2, one for before cruise and one for after cruise?

I can’t speak to the specifics of your itinerary and the visa (I did 144 hour exemption but closed loop Shanghai) but as far as lines - I went in March and the line was long but there were many, many excursion buses for the city tour / airport transfer. I wouldn’t worry about missing it. One thing I’ll share from my experience with the 144 hour visa - I brought multiple copies of everything , it really is at the specific agents discretion....they did NOT except my printed itinerary from the airline as proof of departure because it was printed out over three pages and my name wasn’t “close enough” to the flight into (passenger details we’re listed on the third page) I happened to have gotten a text message from the airline that there was a gate change on my flight - and showed them the text on my phone and that was sufficient - very strange! I had multiple hard copies and electronics copies of everything because I heard it can sometimes be tricky!
