How to rationally identify the final list of summer tourism?

Every time near the end of the summer vacation, I will see some published travel list information in my circle of friends. Many travel agencies and online travel platforms have also begun to launch some special preferential activities. Compared with the price of normal tour groups, the price of tour packages is lower, and even some products can enjoy overseas tours at the price of domestic tours. Is this really a good thing?

Behind the cheap line is a hidden consumption trap.

Real travel receipts are not defective products, but travel products that have not been sold by travel agencies and online travel platforms before the registration date, including free travel routes, hotels, air tickets and so on. In most cases, some travel merchants will sell below the cost price to recover losses. Or a guest leaves the group temporarily before departure, and the travel agency has to sell the remaining seats at preferential prices to reduce losses. The time for a solo tour is tight. For example, domestic tours usually leave within three or four days.

How to tell the true and false tails? At present, part of it is real tourism tail goods, and part is low-cost marketing under the guise of tail goods. The number of real tourist receipts is generally small. Although the price is low, the service you enjoy will not be discounted. Especially in the tourist season, there are fewer tail orders, and tourists who want to find benefits have a better chance to wait until the tail orders in the off-season.

In fact, the pre-sale price is not low.

When searching for tourism products online, a "four-day tour of Jeju Island" aroused the interest of journalists. The original price is 3300 yuan, starting from 1.968 yuan after 60% discount. However, after careful reading, it is found that not only is there no price of 1968 yuan, but the lowest price is also 1999 yuan, and the earliest tour date is September 6.

At this time, the peak of summer vacation tourism has passed, and the price decline is an inevitable trend. In addition, buying special travel products in advance, just like buying special air tickets, faces many troubles such as being unable to unsubscribe and change tickets. According to the reporter's understanding, after booking the itinerary through the online travel website, the website will sign an electronic contract with the passenger, and the payment must be made within 24 hours after the contract is signed. The cancellation requirements will be written in the electronic contract, and the general cancellation process stipulates that 70% of the ticket price will be deducted.

Local groups need to pay their own tolls from different places.

Log in to the special sales exchange of many travel websites and say "limited time to buy, tail goods to sell, value-for-money pre-sale". However, the reporter found that most of these products are concentrated in economically developed cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Nanjing, and products from other cities are very scarce.

Take Changsha, Hunan as an example. Among the sales prices of many "tail orders" on the Internet, there is a difference of more than 2,000 yuan from the local starting price in Changsha. It seems that although the price gap is large, the products sold online are all from other places such as Shanghai, which means that Changsha tourists must fly to Shanghai if they want to enjoy low prices. Not to mention the fatigue and waste of time, the round-trip air ticket costs about 2000 yuan, which actually doesn't save much money.
