Would like to travel from US to Hong Kong to X'ian to Beijing and back to USI understand Hong Kong doesn't need a VISA.I understand X'ian & Beijing qualify for 72 hour free transitNot clear on the travel from Xian to Beijing...does this disqualify another 72 hour free transit.Seems only one city trip allowed from Hong Kong to use a 72 hour free transit.

Hi, if you travel like US-Hong Kong-X'ian and Beijing-US, you cannot enjoy 72 hour free transit because of your layover in Beijing. You are advised to apply for a visa for that beforehand.

If we skip Xian and only travel from HKG to PEK and back to US does the 72 hr apply ??

Yes, you can enjoy 72 hour free transit in Beijing if you travel like that.

Does the 72 hour clock reset between cities ??
