Ouyangxu: The Current Restrictions to Tibet Tourism and Solutions
Mr.Ouyangxu, the chairman of Tibet Travel Co.Ltd, pointed out in a recent interview that transportation and short travel season are two main restrictions of development of Tibet tourism.
During the interview, Ou quoted a data to clarify further of the current problems in Tibet tourism, 'In this August, there are 74 flights commuting from Jiuzhiagou to other domestic cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Xi'an, Chongqing etc, but in Tibet, there are very less flights flying only to Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu and so on, Nyingchi is the most popular spot among travelers in Tibet, but it only has a few flight connecting with very rare cities, you cannot ask more at this situation','another problem is that travel peak season in Tibet lasts only in July, August and September, the rest nice months there are fewer people visit Tibet'. Regarding the solutions to these problems, Ou said the extension of both airports at Lhasa and Nyingchi is necessary, more flights in and out of Tibet should be in each airline's schedule, in addition, more second level airport are expected to be constructed in near future, also the solution of short travel season should be solved based on the new policy by the Central government.
