I’m flying from Cape Town, South Africa to Haikou, China at the end of May, the cheapest flight I can find is Cape Town – Dubai, Dubai – Guangzhou, and Guangzhou to Haikou.
The layover in Dubai is 10 hours long. This flight is by far the cheapest with the next cheapest being well over twice the price. I’m looking to spend under 1000euro (a lot under that if possible – maybe 500)
What do you think? Would it be cheaper to book all the connections myself? Should I go to a travel agents? (I’m in China at the minute)
Do any of you have any ideas on how to do it cheaper? Must be back in Haikou by 30/05/10.

I have booked a flight plan from Shenyang China to Beijing to LA to Austin, but my plans have changed and it would now be much more convenient for me to skip Shenyang and start my flight from Beijing.
My travel agent has told me that there will be a $250 charge if I skip the Shenyang to Beijing flight. This sounds ridiculous to me. Will I have any problems if I just show up for my booked Beijing flight?

I would like to buy online (I’m a “Foreigner”, not resident of China.) I see US travel agencies advertising tickets. Must I go through an agent? Can’t I buy directly? I went to the official olympics website, but it’s so crowded with info. I spent a lot of time and couldn’t find the answer there. Has anyone looked into this already?

A woman called and asked, “Do airlines put your physical description on your bag so they know whose luggage belongs to who?” I said, “No, why do you ask?” She replied, “Well, when I checked in with the airline, they put a tag on my luggage that said FAT, and I’m overweight, is there any connection?” After putting her on hold for a minute while I “looked into it” (I was actually laughing) I came back and explained the city code for Fresno is FAT, and that the airline was just putting a destination tag on her luggage.
I just got off the phone with a man who asked, “How do I know which plane to get on?” I asked him what exactly he meant, which he replied, “I was told my flight number is 823, but none of these darn planes have numbers on them.
A woman called and said, “I need to fly to Pepsi-cola on one of those computer planes.” I asked if she meant to fly to Pensacola on a commuter plane. She said, “Yeah, whatever.”
A businessman called and had a question about the documents he needed in order to fly to China. After a lengthy discussion about passports, I reminded him he needed a visa. “Oh no I don’t, I’ve been to China many times and never had to have one of those.” I double checked and sure enough, his stay required a visa. When I told him this he said, “Look, I’ve been to China four times and every time they have accepted my American Express.”
A woman called to make reservations, “I want to go from Chicago to Hippopotamus, New York.” The agent was at a loss for words. Finally, the agent: “Are you sure that’s the name of the town?” “Yes, what flights do you have?” replied the customer. After some searching, the agent came back with, “I’m sorry, ma’am, I’ve looked up every airport code in the country and can’t find a Hippopotamus anywhere.” The customer retorted, “Oh don’t be silly. Everyone knows where it is. Check your map!” The agent scoured a map of the state of New York and finally offered, “You don’t mean Buffalo, do you?”

Carmi asked:
In China and looking to go on holiday but dont want to go to the usual places and dont want to waste time transiting. Every time I talk to travel agents they give me the same places (Hong Kong/Bangkok) thus I would like to find a list of all destinations which have a direct connection with Shanghai. Asian destinations are preferred due to proximity.
