Westerners are Not Welcome on Xiamen Air.
Today I flew (one-way) from Xiamen City, China to Bangkok, Thailand. The ticket agent was unhappy that I booked a one-way ticket and asked to see proof of available funds (to book a return flight). I showed her a bank statement with a $35,000 balance (I knew this request might occur). Then she said I needed to show her my cash. So, I did; 24,000 RMB or $3,400. Then she said I still needed to book a return ticket or she wouldn't let me on the plane. So I got on my phone and booked a return ticket. I'm a westerner. Once I arrived in Bangkok no asked me about my return travel plans or how much money I had. I believe this airline discriminated against westerner.
