China to
Standardize Contracts on Overseas Travel
CRIENGLISH.com Jan.
22, 2007 - The situation of disputes caused
by irregular overseas travel contracts will be improved as China
enforces a unified overseas travel contract model and builds up a
long-term credit system in 2007. This is the hope of the China
National Tourism Administration, which says the new model of overseas
travel contract will be rectified by the China National Tourism
Administration and the State Administration for Industry and Commerce.
The unified model will reduce
the disputes and traps caused by the troubled waters of irregular
travel contracts. As China has become the biggest overseas travel
market in Asia, the number of overseas destinations for Chinese
travelers has grown rapidly. But, at the same time, disordered travel
contracts have frequently ignited disputes between clients and travel
agencies over alterations to lodgings, shopping and extra expenses
during travel.
New rules for
Chinese travel Tvnz.co.nz, Oct. 13, 2006 - China is cracking down on airline
passengers who change seats, smoke and wander the cabin at
inappropriate times, threatening them with fines of up to 10,000
yuan local media reported on Friday. Airlines in China have
previously taken a relaxed attitude to the flouting of in-flight
rules, with cabin staff invariably ignoring the stowing of oversized
luggage and allowing fliers to swap seats at will. But in a sign of
changing times China has introduced rules that allow fines for
ignoring cabin staff orders, smoking, stowing oversized and
overweight hand luggage, "creating disturbances" and 13 other sort
of behaviour, the paper said.
