About:Visa on Arrival
Boarding Refused-Hainan Airlines-No PreBooked Visa-Visa on Arrival not allowed
Booked Hainan Airlines Cairns(CNS)-Shenzhen(SZX) return.Intended five day Visa on Arrival for stay of 143 hours just one hour short of the maximum 144hours counted from midnight on the date of arrival for train trip to Beihai for wedding on 01Dec2019.Airline Staff seemed unaware of the Visa on Arrival Scheme-I have got dual NZ&UK Passports and treated this as a transit scenario with a maximum stay of between 24 and 72hours so I was refused boarding-the situation for Chinese Visas seems quite convoluted,complicated and very opaque Henry-FarNthQLD-OZ
