Hi guys, landing this coming Saturday.

When I checked the internet for May weather, the impression I got was that you can expect some rain after 17:00 but it doesn't usually last long.
However, the BBC Weather site shows 25% - 75% chance of rain between 10:00 and 19:00 pretty much every single day for the remainder of this month.
That doesn't sound right.

I intend to carry an umbrella, but concerned that rain throughout the day will negatively impact my tourist experience.

What's the reality likely to be?

Thanks.

Hi guys,
We're considering a business class booking on the HST between Chengdu and Xi'An.

My travel partner is vegetarian.
Is there a choice of meals, and if so does that include a vegetarian option?
If not, is there a way to prebook a special meal as you would on a plane?

As the journey is under 5 hours, I guess they can bring suitable food onboard, but it would be a shame to not take advantage of the complimentary meal.

Thanks.

***Purchased my seats now. Thanks for the opinions. All good now***

Hi guys,

I need two seats for my first (and probably only) Lucha Libre event on a Tuesday night later this month.

I think I would prefer seats at the start/end of a row.

I've circled 2 pairs of seats in the map below:
Ring N, row 8, 16 & 17
Ring A, row 8, 154 & 155
Prices are identical.

Can anyone kindly tell me if one is better than the other?
Alternatively, are there any better seats on this map?

Thanks in advance.

Seating Plan

Hi guys, what's the area like around that place please?
No. 601 Fengyang Road, Jing'an District, Shanghai, Shanghai 200041

In terms of access to public transport; places of interest within walking distance; shops & restaurants etc (I don't need a list of places - just an indication of whether there are some nearby).

So, I don't need opinions about the property (can search the internet for that), but I am interested if the area surrounding it is a decent location for a first time visitor to the city, avoiding the more expensive hotels near the Bund.

Thanks.
