Olympic Security Measures

Friday August 1, 2008
As China prepares for next week’s Opening Ceremonies for the Olympic Games in Beijing, security measures have been increased dramatically at all major airports in China. While the airports are always crowded, I generally find that the security lines are relatively short and efficient. Expect that to be very different if you are traveling to China over the next several weeks.

Chinese officials are warning travelers to arrive at the airport three to four hours in advance to allow for additional security check points and longer waits at passport control. Before you get too frustrated, keep in mind that the athletes have it worse – at least we can avoid the doping and gender checks. Let the games begin!
