"The helicopter ride was absolutely spectacular, from the welcome at The Peninsula Lobby, to the pre-flight briefing in The China Clipper lounge on the 30th floor ( make sure you have enough time for this lounge is in itself worth exploring and will take you right back to the early days of air travel) and boarding all was so impeccably professional and with the subtle Peninsula touches of great hospitality. The 15 minute flight itself was so smooth and just mindboggling for its vistas. We enjoyed the best weather and where blessed with a clear sky and great visibility. The mainland deserves some kudos for having shut down all the factories just prior to CNY. Your Canadian pilot was not only giving us a smooth ride, but he was a good tour guide with a great sense of humour. If you ever thought that China was made up only of sky scrapers and densely populated areas, take this ride and you will be amazed to see these beaches and the greenery of these hills, most of them preserved as country parks. Our take off was at 12 noon on January 31st 2014 and the flight was to honour our visiting cousin and his spouse from Europe. To finish off in style we enjoyed a perfectly prepared luncheon at Gaddis, The Peninsula's long established culinary heaven. Both, the helicopter ride from the roof and the luncheon at Gaddis are highly recommended."
