E-tickets to be new standard
The days of multi-layer air tickets appear numbered, as the China Air
Transport Association (CATA) has stopped providing paper tickets and
instructed sellers to issue e-tickets.
E-tickets will be issued once the current batch of paper tickets has been
used up. The change currently only applies to domestic flights.
Customers will book tickets through airlines or ticket agents as usual,
and will be given a booking reference.
They will then be able to use automatic check-in facilities at airports,
and receive an invoice for reimbursement. They can also check-in as
normal at the counter.
Economic growth slows
China's economic growth for the first nine months slowed a bit to 10.7
per cent, but the world's fourth-largest economy is still on course to
enjoy the fourth consecutive year of 10 per cent growth.
The slowdown, from 10.9 per cent in the first six months, follows two
increases in interest rates and required reserves, backed up by an array
of administrative curbs, to cool a credit-fuelled investment spree.
Premier Wen Jiabao said last Wednesday it was too soon to relax the
controls.
