About:24-Hour Visa-Free Transit
Why does it take five to 6 hours of waiting in line to leave the airport on a 24hr transit transit?
On the 16th of December 2017 I arrived in Beijing from Milan and had to wait in line for almost six hours at the counter for 24/72 hour visas in Terminal 3. My two small children were tired, but luckily managed to sleep on the floor and other passengers gave them water. How is this possible in a modern airport like Beijing? Many other travelers gave up on their day in Beijing as they ran out of time for a day trip and so had to stay in the airport. It was simply beyond ridiculous.
