Luckily for us, his flight into Kunming was cancelled because of the heavy snow. Someone should have told the airport that "it's only snow, the clouds aren't actually falling from the sky."
He got put up in a free hotel for a night in Shanghai and by the time he came to Kunming I was able to arrange a ride and a room at the Lost Garden. Thanks to everyone who helped out!
Thank you for all of your advice everyone! I didn't mean to cause such a commotion or make it sound like this was a life threatening issue. I do not have much experience in Kunming and was looking for some quick advice on what my best step will be.
My friend and I are very easy going and will not look down on China because of a mistake I made, I don't know why anyone would think that. I just didn't realize that it would snow so much and shut down the roads.
It is impossible for me to get to Kunming at this point because police are blocking the roads. So I will take everyones advice and have him exchange money at the ATM and get him in a taxi to The Hump. He has my phone number here so once he realizes I am not at the airport he can call. Thank you again! I appreciate the help.
I have a friend from America who is flying into Kunming tonight at 11:20pm. I live in Mile, and was going to take a bus to pick him up today. However, the busses just said they are not running to Kunming because the snow forced road closures.
What should I have my friend do? He has never been to China, and has no Yuan. We communicate via email, but only when he has wifi. I told him that he might be able to get yuan in change from a restaurant at the airport. If he did that he would be able to go to a hotel, but other than that I am out of ideas.
Can anyone offer me any advice for this situation? Thank you so much.
