Question about numbers in Step Climb

Hi, forgive me if this is explained elsewhere, I couldn’t find anyting.

I planned a flight from New Delhi (VIDP) to Tokyo (RJTT) chosen because of an amazing jetstream tailwind. I was flying the 787-10 in MSFS.

The OFP Step Climb section of the Briefing Preview showed the initial cruise altitude of FL370, but then showed 2 steps with numbers I didn’t understand: 1130 and 1190

FL STEPS VIDP/0370/NGJ/1130/SHX/1190/UDINO/0390

Do those 2 numbers mean something other than altitude?

Hi, these are metric flight levels when flying in Chinese airspace.

They represent 11,300 and 11,900 meters (37,100 and 39,100 feet respectively).

Best regards,

Ah… ok thanks. I didn’t realize that.
