Ji'nan: tourism law will increase prices, and tourists will take the "low price last bus" in September.
"two days"
Ms. Zhang Nan, who was just married in the early September, is going out for a honeymoon during the National Day holiday. The couple set their destination in Bali Island, and Zhang Nan was surprised when they asked about the price of the tourist route. Before the festival, Bali Island's 6 day tour market quotes between 6000 and 8000 yuan, and the price of the same trip rose to 12000 yuan after the holiday, and the price almost doubled.
after many considerations, Zhang Nan had to advance his honeymoon plan to the end of September. At the time of registration, they were told by the travel agency staff to make the "booking speed". In September 14th and September 18th, the team was full, and the remaining flight number of the remaining teams in September 23rd was not much.
"travel fever" unexpectedly appears in the off-season of tourism
the first ten days of September is often the off-season of tourism, but this year it is a bit different.
at the "tour fair" held at the center of the International Exhibition Center of Shun tillage at the beginning of this month, the special discount of tourist special discount carried out by tourist agencies, such as Jiahua tourism, Ginza tourism, hundred events tourism, Kang Hui tourism and new China Travel Agency, was repercussions. According to statistics, all the routes are tourism products before the festival, and there are hardly any holiday tours. Jiahua tourism completed 1 million 200 thousand yuan tourism sales in 3 days, including outbound and domestic long lines, and 90% of the routes for National Day holidays. "Hot outbound routes such as Han Guoyou and Thailand tour are unusually hot." The head of the outbound travel department of the Ji'nan Kang Hui travel agency told reporters, "almost all of the South Korean tour in September sold out to 10 days, and the number of Thailand tours before September 18th was also full."
the head of the Southeast Asian Department told reporters that the tourist market was very hot in September, and the number of people was up to more than 50% in the past. Now there are few seats left in Taiwan, South Korea and Southeast Asia.
the "low price tour" from the next month "low price tour" will be degenerated by the
Travel Law, which stipulates that travel agencies shall not attract tourists at an unreasonable low price, lure tourists, and obtain unjustified interests such as kickbacks by arranging shopping or paying other travel items, so as to protect the rights and interests of tourists and standardize the conduct of tour guides. Hao Haining, the general manager of the Ji'nan Explorer international travel agency, said that the travel law clearly stipulates that the travel agencies can not increase the tourist attractions and shopping sites in private trips, and the increase in the cost of the travel will increase the tourist quotations in varying degrees.
some tourist practitioners have revealed that some of the domestic long line tours and a large number of outbound travel routes are both shopping and self funded projects, especially in Southeast Asia, which often attract tourists with low quotations. It costs thousands of yuan to go to the local performances, attractions and so on. In addition, shopping is also the "big head" that the receiving agency and the group can make up for the cost. After the implementation of the "tourism law", self fee, shopping, and scenic spots will be prohibited. The travel agency has to put all the items in the quotation. The original project is written directly into the line of the tourism contract, and the quotation will rise naturally.
from the current data, the postfestival travel quotations have risen from three to 40%, and some of the popular destinations have doubled, such as "Phuket Island's 5 night 7 day tour", which quoted over 10000 yuan after the September quotation of 7000 yuan national day. European travel also rose from around 11 thousand yuan to around 16 thousand yuan.
"return to the essence of the service industry"
"after the implementation of the" tourism law ", the tour package is priced at the same price, so that consumers can see it clearly. Ji'nan Tourism Bureau responsible person said, "in the face of the upcoming changes, or make rapid changes, or wait for death."
reporters in the interview learned that many travel agencies after the price of the late arrival, is in wait-and-see. A general manager of a travel agency in Shandong said, "the price is high, because the price is low and the price is low."
despite the implementation of the "tourism law", the old travellers who have been employed for many years are somewhat at a loss, but we still have great hopes for the positive impact of the introduction and implementation of the tourism law. Shuang Yinlin, deputy general manager of Shandong tourism and distribution center, said: "tourism is the service industry in the final analysis, and the fee of the group includes service fees. The implementation of the tourism law is the essence of the return of tourism to the service industry."
