Hello all,
Just read this article and thought it might interest some members:
Air China’s in-flight magazine, Wings of China, has a long feature on visiting London in the current issue, which talks all about what you should do during your visit to the city.
While the story is thousands and thousands of words long, there are a couple of sentences in particular that are drawing the most attention. Specifically, the part about safety:
“London is generally a safe place to travel, however, precautions are needed when entering areas mainly populated by Indians, Pakistanis, and black people. We advise tourists not to go out alone at night, and females always to be accompanied by another person when travelling.”
Extremely shocking that they'd write this in an in-flight magazine, especially considering they are such a large airline.
