I chose to stay at the Meichen Beijing Daxing International Airport in the terminal building for one night to avoid the trouble of rushing for a business flight across provinces at 7 am from Daxing Airport. I was afraid of being stuck in traffic during the morning rush hour, so I decided to stay overnight. I only hoped it could save me the trouble of rushing, but unexpectedly, my one night stay completely rewrote all the embarrassing memories I had accumulated from catching an early flight before.
Before landing in Beijing, I had already coordinated with the hotel in advance. After getting off the plane, I didn't need to leave the terminal building. I followed the instructions and walked for ten minutes to reach the hotel lobby. Even the wheels of my luggage didn't touch the outdoor road surface. When checking in, the front desk business specialist learned that I had to catch an early flight to attend the conference the next day. Without waiting for me to speak, he took the initiative to print out the complete set of conference materials for me. He also sent the wake-up time, the license plate for free airport transfer, and the contact information of the contact person one by one via SMS and WeChat, afraid that I would miss any of the messages. I casually mentioned the need to temporarily change the half hour plan, and the front desk immediately arranged a quiet corner of the lobby book bar for me to provide free freshly ground coffee and small Dim sum, so that I could adjust all the PPTs to be talked about the next day before boarding.
The business room I live in completely meets all the needs of business travelers: a 1.2-meter-wide desk that can accommodate two laptops and a pile of project drawings, and a matching ergonomic chair that provides strong support. Even after two hours of continuous revisions, there will be no back pain. The most amazing thing is the double layered sound insulation in the room. Even if it's so close to the terminal, you can't hear the noise of planes taking off and landing after closing the door. The thick blackout curtains, when pulled, completely eliminate the common anxiety of "afraid of oversleeping" in hotels around the airport. I stayed up until late at night to change the plan, and soon fell asleep after touching the pillow. The appropriateness in the details cannot be hidden: the desk is directly equipped with a multi country conversion socket, so there is no need to search through backpacks for adapters; USB fast charging ports are distributed on both sides of the bed and desk, allowing for simultaneous charging of mobile phones, computers, and power banks; Even for a suit that needs to be ironed before catching a flight, just call the front desk and a staff member will deliver it to the laundry room for urgent ironing in ten minutes.
The next morning at 5:30, the front desk called me to wake up on time. When I went downstairs, the shuttle bus was already waiting at the door. It took me five minutes to arrive at the international check-in counter, saving me at least an hour and a half of trouble compared to when I rushed from the city before. Even my fellow customers praised me for not being like someone who would catch an early flight.
I used to think that catching an early flight for a business trip would inevitably result in staying up late and taking a taxi in a panic. However, this time at Meichen Beijing Daxing International Airport, I realized that choosing the right place to stay can turn the hustle and bustle of a business trip into a calm and worry free experience. Next time I come to Daxing Airport to transfer and attend the conference, this will definitely be my only choice.Show more
