Competition time - first person to identify location of pic below will get 1 x FREE BEER from me at next weeks Melbourne Drinks Night.

If you are in attendance - YOU DRINK IT - if you are not in attendance - I DRINK IT.

is it Beijing?

We have a winner here!

If I'm not mistaken, I think that looks like inbound immigration.

Couldn't accept the reward if I'd beaten edison anyway - I can't be in Melbourne for the drinks night :) Unless someone is paying :p :D

YES 100% correct - inbound immigration T3 PEK - wasn't that hard was it.

BUT

This pic was taken at 14:30 on Sat Feb 2 - 2:30pm in PEK arrivals! I could not believe it - any of you regulars into PVG / PEK will know how many thousands are normally queued pre immig - I just could not believe it.

I was in F on SQ - 1st off plane - 1st through the 'temp check barriers' - then rounded corner to TOTALLY EMPTY immig hall - not one single Chinese / Foreigner waiting at immig.

I stopped in amazement - pulled out cam and snapped the pic - not ever EVER likely to see same again - we all know how the Chinese love to see 200mtr lines.

Now technically if you check Edison's response:
is it Beijing?
Now should answering a question with another question be technically deemed an answer?

I think not - BBBBZZZZZZTTTT - unacceptable - looks like I get the beer.

J/K Edison - you get a beer if you are there.
 
Also forgot to mention exiting T3 - luggage was through in like 2 mins and I had 3 big bags - no hordes assembled in front of lifts waiting to go down to taxi area - no taxi queue at all - walked straight through to taxi without breaking stride - UFB.

I won't be in for it. So you can drink it on my behalf, or give it to anyone here you wish ..... Have to say that though, when i went through there 2 years ago on CA HKG-PEK, there were not many people, but not that empty as per photo!
