Do not bring any yogurt as you will have to either chug it all or throw it out. There was a starbucks right past T2 security - around $5. Plane spotting is boring. The wifi is censored (what'd you expect).

An unbelievable airport. The internal transport runs like clock work. It was easier than I was expecting in the processing of all passengers.

Upon arrival they lost my suitcase. Luckily it was found later that day in the other terminal. Upon my way back I got the suitcase at the luggage claim office.

The restaurants at the airport were amazing, though the service wasn't the best. The layout of the allowed me to travel around like i've been there many times. The food was excellent! Security check (by dog) when you walk into the airport. In some places, there's an X-ray check. Some security officers were nice but others were rude and impatient.

Nice and large airport (t3), but generally dated and not really well maintained for its age (considering it's only 10 years old). Rather convenient from the city center via express train, though check in was long and security was borderline claustraphobic. The nice thing about it were some free showers that are not that well known.

WIFI for chinese residents only (local phone number required for registration).
Fast food and coffee for reasonable prices at the airport.
Large duty free stores with large range of goods at good prices.
Air within the airport as poor as outside.

Very nice airport. I liked it. I do not like the repeatance of the security check (they presumably do not believe into the german-one), but they were professional and effective. No free wifi, unless you have a chinese-mainland cell phone number. That's weird...

Very clean and modern airport. Immigration was relatively fast, and there was plenty of food available. You need to connect with WeChat to use wifi though (I'm quite sure you can also directly give your phone number).

The airport is too large,
Moving from gate to immigration to baggage counter took a long long time.
The queuing of immigration is not efficient at all.
The airport was dark as if power storage happened

Shops and most of the restaurants closed after 10 pm so not much to do if you have a late departure. It takes ages to get through customs so give yourself +1 hr (at least).

Very unfriendly and unhelpful staff in the lounge. This has to improve definitely. Security control was rude. On the other hand, organization good, architecture very nice, metro to city center works well.

Very large and modern.
Allow more than two hours for transfer national to international (or opposite way). You nee to get your luggage and re-check it. International terminal is reached by train, needs some time. And walking to gates might be quite long...

The airport was really big and was sometimes hard to navigate. WiFi was hard to connect as only certain areas has it. It took a long time to clear immigration (like 30 minutes) . Though there were many shops and some lounges, they were quite expensive and choices were limited as many of them sold similar items.

Getting to the airport is pretty quick and convenient with the Airport Express Link. The WiFi is not working good and your are behind the Chinese firewall which means no Facebook, Google etc. The immigration is terribly slow and the food in the Air China lounge is very average.

its a massive airport with nothing inside. The immigration is the worst ( 1 hour queue just for the stamp ) . The shop selection here is poor , the baggage claim is slow also. There's only 1 taxi stand and you have to wait even more ... (WAITING is the main theme here )

The flight was delayed because of weather - heavy fog. Original flight from MNL landed in another city and I spent whole night at the PEK airport. Poor information from airline officer, Philippine airlines agent did not give any water or blankets. Only morning offered hotel. Finally flight was delayed almost 24 hours... PEK airport during night is a nightmare...
