Julia Lo Bue-Said, CEO of The Advantage Travel Partnership, has praised the announcement of China reopening its borders to the world.
In statement, the Lo Bue-Said said,
“China reopening its borders and issuing visas to foreign travellers after three years is another major step in the full recovery of the travel industry, following the unprecedented disruption of the pandemic. The removal of China’s travel restrictions will provide a significant boost to the global travel industry, with tens of millions travelling to and from the country each year.”
“Following this news, we expect Advantage members to see a surge in bookings to China from both leisure and corporate travellers. For anyone planning to visit China we strongly recommend booking via your local travel agent, as they can advise on the best itinerary, have access to great value deals and can help navigate the complexities of travel to this destination, including the visa application process.”
Foreign travellers can apply for visas to China from today (15 March) and those with previous approved visas before the pandemic will also remain valid.
