China-US agreement to boost tourism flows

BEIJING - Chinese citizens will soon be able to travel to the US on tourist visas and in groups, and US destinations will be permitted to market themselves in China (PRC). 


PATA regional director North America, Barbara Bryant, welcomed the agreement, which was signed at the 18th China-US Joint Commission on Commerce and Trade this week.

"This presents enormous opportunities for PATA members in both destinations," she said.
