This new Travel Day will be very different to many of our others, as we set off on our next adventure to China, which includes Shanghai and Hong Kong on the trip and visiting the Disney Park in both areas. Our day starts at the Holiday Inn Slough and we then head across to the Meet and Greet Parking in London Heathrow Airport. From here we check in with Virgin Atlantic and tackle the first steps to be accepted on a Chinese 144 Hour Transit Visa. After security we head to the nicest Airport Lounge we have experienced, the No.1 Lounge in Terminal 3 and then head to our plane with Virgin. On arrival in Shanghai (after a 12 1/2 hour flight), we take the camera along to show our process for our 144 Hour Transit Visa and then head across to our hotel on the Bund in Shanghai, the Ator Hotel. Scarlett then takes the vlog on a room tour and shows all the lovely facilities. It's a long travel day, with a different location, which we hope you all enjoy.
