Wei Tao, chairman of Diamond Cruise International Co, Ltd, says his company plans to have a cruise leaving from a Japanese homeport for Shanghai, to draw Japanese tourists to 皇冠体育app.
"Cruise tourism in 皇冠体育app should have both inbound and outbound tourists. It should not just about transporting Chinese guests to Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia," Zheng says.
Zheng suggests that global cruise companies open more cruise lines that go around the world, or that they first transport overseas tourists to 皇冠体育app by air and then have them tour around 皇冠体育app and other Asian countries on cruises.
"In the rapid growth of cruise tourism, quality also counts. Operators in the industry should ensure the good quality of a cruise experience, and avoid malicious low-price competition."
