re: However.......looks like 90 minutes ... 1 orbit.

When Russian Yuri Gagarin became the first human in space in 1961, his flight lasted 108 minutes. Days later American Alan Shepard spent just 15 minutes on a suborbital flight.

Xie, who now works for the China Academy of Sciences, was quoted as saying the Shenzhou V flight would last around 90 mintues.
