January 26, 2022: Off to the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games on an Air Canada charter flight from VYR direct to PEK. Everyone on the flight had 96 and 72-hour pre-departure COVID PCR tests and then another rapid test immediately prior to departure. We had an on-time departure at 1:30 pm and no problems during the flight.
Arrived PEK ahead of time around 4:30 pm. Took less than 1 hour to clear customs and activate our accreditation. Then several hour wait to get our luggage and board buses to travel to the Olympic villages.
For the Beijing Olympics there are 3 Olympic Villages: Beijing, Yanqing and Zhangjiakou. I have been assigned to the Chanqing village to look after the bobsleigh, skeleton and luge athletes as well as all the Team Canada support staff. Click these link to see more about the B22 Olympic venues.
