The development of novel coronavirus is believed to be the most concerned thing for the people of the whole country this Spring Festival. For many people, this Spring Festival is the cleanest one in many years. We didn't visit relatives and friends, nor did we visit each other. Everyone is quietly waiting at home for the epidemic to dissipate. And with the spread and diagnosis of the epidemic, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism also issued the latest notice to suspend the outbound tourism projects of national tour groups.

Notice of suspension of outbound travel by national tour groups

Tourists and travel agencies can solve follow-up problems through consultation according to contracts and relevant laws.

Provide protection for tourists

65438+1On October 27th, the official micro-signal of China Travel Agency Association released the initiative issued by the online travel service branch to overseas travelers (hereinafter referred to as the "initiative"), calling on overseas merchants to give preferential measures to China tourists.

As the president unit of online travel service providers' branch of China Travel Agency Industry Association, more than ten domestic online travel service providers, such as Mahoneycomb Travel, Tuniu Travel, Donkey Mom Travel and CYTS Travel, jointly issued an initiative to overseas travel merchants, calling on overseas merchants to assist all platforms to provide protection mechanisms for China tourists during the epidemic and make every effort to reduce the loss of tourists.

The right to reduce the loss of tourists

According to this initiative, China is the largest tourist source country in the world, with more than 654.38 billion China tourists traveling abroad every year. During the Spring Festival, it is the peak of China tourists' travel. Due to the epidemic, a large number of China tourists canceled their travel plans. China Railway Department, Civil Aviation Department, airlines and major online travel service providers have successively issued policies to exempt related losses and handling fees caused by booking, change, cancellation and extension during the epidemic.

The "Initiative" proposes that because the composition of outbound travel products is often complicated, tourists mostly buy outbound travel products in the form of "group tour" and "machine+wine", and a series of problems such as air tickets, visas, ground connection and hotels caused by the cancellation of orders make tourists suffer more losses. In this case, the Initiative calls on overseas travel agents to join hands with major online travel service providers in China to actively and properly handle the cancellation or postponement of travel by tourists and make every effort to reduce the loss of tourists.
