Travel Agents

Talk To Your Agency

Each agency handles travel a little differently. Some agencies arrange every detail of your trip including all your flights; some agencies arrange your in-China travel and ask you to book your international flight; some agencies give you the choice. Some allow you to book your own hotel rooms if you want; some want you to travel with a group, some let you go alone. You need to find out how your agency handles the situation. Then go from there!

Flights and Travel Agents

If you will be booking your own flights, you'll either need to book them yourself or get a travel agent/agency to do it for you. There are quite a few options in this area! Remember, it is best to get quotes from more than one travel agent/service, and then go with the cheapest option.

Also, sometimes it is cheaper to book directly with the airlines rather than using a travel agent. It all depends on where you're going and when you're going! Even if you decide to use a travel agent, definitely do your own research to make sure you're getting the best deal.
