The Chinese Government arranged for my transfer flight from Shanghai to Beijing and for my accommodation whilst in Shanghai and Beijing.  (I met my own flight costs from London to Shanghai, Beijing to Hong Kong, and Hong Kong to London.  I also met my own accommodation costs whilst in Hong Kong.)  I received upgrade on flights to Shangahi and on my return to London from Virgin Atlantic. (Registered 8 November 2006)
