We will be in Beijing 12 hours and 30 minutes. My question is if my wife (Costa Rica passport) needs a visa to spend the night of Jan 26 in Beijing?
Are there hotels inside the airport transit area or would we have to leave the airport?
Can you help us get a hotel for the night?
Thanks for all your help.
