Chateau d If:
--- Quote from: Slowhatch on March 15, 2011, 07:31:19 PM ---If it helps any, when K/V were lost they were driving through the streets of Shinjuku; the first cap is the Nowa building next to Shinjuku station and the second cap is the Green Peas pachinko parlor nearby.

Also in Shinjuku :ascared

Oh my.... :'(
DrRox:
Peach...........
They design those skyscrapers with huge counterweights on the roof. When the building sways one way, the counterweight is moved the other direction to counteract the motion.

It makes me seasick. I know.. I have been at the top of some that you can FEEL swaying in strong winds. But still...

Actually if people would have researched the flight options for that day, you probably would understand why teams were forced to fly on that 9:50am flight.

Not quite, Dr. Rox. If teams had been given that option, they would have discovered what I did, which is 3 flight combinations leaving not more than 55 minutes before the designated flight combination through Hong Kong and arriving at least one hour sooner into Kunming. More teams (probably all) would have made the same train as Ron/Christina did to Lijiang.
Tokyo to Kunming Sat. 11/27
flight choices:
NH5711 NRT CKG (Chonqing) 0855 1515, connecting to MU5722 CKG KMG 1555 1710
CA422 NRT PEK (Beijing) 0900 1200, connecting with CA4170 PEK KMG 1415 1740
NH919 NRT PVG (Shanghai) 0940 1210, connecting with CZ6799 PVG KMG 1420 1745
However, the end result of Bunching at the shuttle bus would not have changed.
