So, what was my worst nightmare? Being stranded in Shanghai without my baggage. It wasn't as bad as that. I had my baggage - eventually. The problem was that it was in China, not consigned thru to Paris. So I had to immigrate to China, get the bags, go thru customs and then emigrate... all without a valid onward ticket.
Chinese immigration officers not amused. Chinese police not amused. Jean least amused of all! Air NZ will not be amused when I return.
