OTAs in China
Today, about 80% of bookings in China are made through OTAs (online travel agencies). This method is especially popular with young and affluent audiences who are active users of mobile services. Today, advertising on OTAs is essential for companies interested in effectively attracting Chinese tourists. One of the services you should consider is Ctrip.
New Chinese tourism features and Ctrip
Traditionally, Chinese people travel abroad in groups, but with rising national income, more leisure travelers from China are interested in individual tourism. Besides, companies doing international business are using corporate travel management services for their employees. In addition, despite the popularity of Shanghai, Hong Kong and other major destinations, Chinese people are more frequently learning English and considering international tourism, and are willing to spend money in countries such as the UK, France and the US. Today, Ctrip can meet all these needs.
Ctrip: packaged tours and individual tourism
Ctrip is especially relevant to packaged tours, individual tourism and other trendy travel services, so the platform attracts the most paying audience in China.

Ctrip acquired shares in tourism businesses and used its own experience to make Ctrip be the most popular online travel agency in China and an ideal tool to promote any travel-related service.
Chinese tourists can use Ctrip to book hotels, plan flights, purchase tickets (air or rail) and other tourism services. In addition, Ctrip provides access to many details related to tourist attractions, discounts, available date and many other options.
