For more than a decade, Germany has to go back several times a year to deal with domestic enterprises. This year, it was arrested in COVID-19 and can't go back for the time being. Because of the epidemic, domestic business cannot be carried out. It was hard to wait until the domestic stability, but the situation abroad became more and more serious.
Which country to fly from is very important.
My finger is broken, and I finally have to navigate. Please book the flight as soon as possible. The air China ticket I bought before has been changed twice. This time, I finally said I could fly. What I want is a health code. I have no choice but to give up. I asked my friends from the travel agency to help me find my ticket, while asking about the price of the ticket everywhere.
According to the "Five Ones" policy of civil aviation in China, each country is only allowed to open one route to China, and the route from Frankfurt to Shanghai is Frankfurt to Shanghai. So many people in Germany want to go back, which is really "full", so it is difficult to buy tickets from Germany, and they have to wait in line for at least two months.
So I thought of flying back to China from other European countries. Anyway, the German border has been opened, and it is convenient and cheap to go to neighboring countries.
Seeing Air China's flight schedule and knowing that Air China flies to Copenhagen every Monday, I went to Copenhagen to queue up to buy Air China's. I didn't attend the queue in Frankfurt at all. I was informed on the third day, but I had to give up because of the health code.
When I started punching in, I was quickly assigned to the position of China International Airlines in Copenhagen. However, my friend from the travel agency has helped me get a plane ticket from Belgium. Thinking it would be more convenient to go to Belgium, I chose to take Hainan Airlines from Brussels, Belgium.
Announcement on Ticket Service at Designated First Entry Point of Hainan Airlines International Flight
The travel agency that helped me buy tickets this time also targeted these relatively unpopular cities, such as Brussels. If this route does not accept students coming back from England, they will actually be dissatisfied. So, you can also try to fly from other cities, such as Copenhagen, Vienna and so on.
You should have a health code when boarding the plane.
I went to Brussels by car, and there was no problem on the way. It is also convenient for friends on the same plane to go to Brussels by train from Aachen. All you need to enter Brussels airport is a plane ticket and a mask. There are few people, so there is no other inspection.
It must be noted that there must be an international health code for 14 days before boarding. After punching in correctly, a small blue plane will appear. Otherwise you can't board the plane. We have an old man on the same plane. He was refused boarding because his health code was not punched continuously.
When waiting for the plane, many people (about one fifth) are fully armed, with protective clothing, goggles, N95 and gloves, but after boarding the plane, almost no one can hold on all the time, because it will be very hot to cover, and it will be even more difficult to explain once the temperature rises.
The flight attendants are armed to the teeth.
There are two meals on the plane, and basically everyone takes off their masks to eat and drink.
I wear goggles, a mask and short sleeves on the plane. I think it's good. It is convenient to wash your hands frequently in the bathroom. I think washing your hands frequently is better than covering your hands.
I'm going back to Beijing, but HNA's plane landed in Xi first. We will be quarantined in Xi for two weeks before we go to other parts of the country from Xi.
The plane landed at Xi 'an 'an Airport, and about 10 people got off the plane. I was basically the last one to get off the plane because my seat was in the back. Before getting off the plane, I have filled out a form, including the address of Germany, recent fever, taking medicine, contact information, access rights of key public places, etc. Including the detailed address (key) and telephone number in China and domestic contacts.
Get off the plane and hand in the form in the designated area, nose swab test, epidemic investigation and so on.
When I was investigating sexually transmitted diseases, someone asked me when I arrived in Germany.
Insert a nose swab from the nose with a cotton swab as long as a chopstick. Very painful, two nostrils, I finished tears. Many little girls are crying. It's really hard.
After about two hours, after inspection, we arrived at the entry point and stamped the entry stamp, which was considered entry.
Then wait in the hall with porridge and cake. It's really warm for those who dare not eat all the way!
Landing Xi 'an security check
When the bus arrived at the hotel, it was already five hours after getting off the plane. Before we got off the bus, the entrance of the hotel had been thoroughly disinfected and isolated by the police at a distance of 100 meters. We filled out an unknown form before release, and people and luggage had to be sprayed with disinfection before they could enter the lobby and wait for their room cards.
The front and back of the hotel have been emptied, the police wear yellow vests, the medical staff wear blue covers, and the hotel staff have no covers.
The hotel is good. It's a four-star hotel. The room should be arranged in advance according to our list, but it is not cheap, 14 days 7000 yuan.
After entering the hotel room, you can't go out again. These days, service personnel only go upstairs at a fixed time, and they also have strict rules. They must be fully armed when they go upstairs (all disposable protective clothing, masks, goggles and gloves). Come up twice a day, that is, to deliver things and meals.
Check into an isolation hotel
If you don't take the initiative to go out at home, you won't feel anything for a long time, but if you are forced to be isolated and not allowed to go out, you will feel different.
You can't just buy online here. If neither medicine nor food can be sent in, you cut off a large part of your life. The internet speed is extremely slow and often breaks down, cutting off another piece of life.
My only entertainment now is watching TV.
A group of post-1995 children who studied in Britain and Ireland came back on the same plane and formed a group to exchange programs.
The hotel has also set up two WeChat groups for everyone. One group is the medical group, which reports the temperature three times a day and nothing else. The other group is the hotel service group, which can ask when the meal will be delivered and what is broken.
Patience during isolation
The hotel also provides a QR code to order the food provided by the hotel, including potato chips, drinks, stewed chicken feet and so on. I bought two cases of water and one case of 48 yuan.
Hotel shopping
I have lived for a week. Do a throat swab again on day 12, not the nasal cavity. After quarantine 14 days, a test result will be sent, which can be used to board planes and trains.
It is also said that the health code of Xi 'an will be changed to green by the staff from the background (14 days of isolation ends).
I haven't had time yet, so I have to wait patiently. I need to go back to China to get ready.
1. Take a pen
You have to fill out forms on the plane and sign many forms after landing. No one will lend you a pen, so avoid contact.
Cover with sheets
Personally, I don't think this hotel provides any shuttle service for 0/4 days, and I think it is the same in other places. The hotel sheets and quilts are very thin. Personally, I can't accept 14 days without changing them.
It's best not to take children.
We have two children on the plane. They can't wear masks. They have been crying. It is difficult to stay in the hotel 14 days after the child landed.
4. learn to adapt.
In Europe, people are used to relaxing, and when they come back, they have to get used to being nervous. When I first entered the hotel, the room rate was still very good. I gave so many bottles of water and so many bags of coffee and tea. I know, it's 14 days.
5. Be careful.
It is said that we found an infection on the last flight.
This means that everyone on the plane may be infected. Especially the third one, with children.
Please bring your nail clippers.
Otherwise, the nails will turn white after 14 days. Feel free to bite with your teeth.
The virus is terrible, but in a sense, the pressure brought by the social environment is even more terrible.
As far as we have no problem, we are rejected and despised by all kinds of staff:
Airport bus parking lot, I think it will take some time. I asked the driver, "Can I have a cigarette?"
The driver gave me a white look through his goggles. "Cut the crap, get on the bus and let you smoke!"
In fact, I think there is no problem at all, because there is no reason not to smoke in parking lots and outdoor venues. However, I'd better wait in the car.
