< p > the first threshold for outbound travel is to handle < a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com > visa > /a", while the price of agent visa service has become "confused account".

Reporters interviewed found that travel agencies such as travel agencies, travel visa for the same country, the price of services is not small, consumers may be careful to spend hundreds of dollars.

< p > strong > "online": "pparent price" plus "refusal to sign the full refund" < /strong > < /p >

When p entered June, Ctrip began to push the visa price "pparent". The reporter clocked the Ctrip network to find that the products sold on Ctrip online all offer quotations in the form of "split" of "consular price + service charge".

For example: the United States personal tourist visa "consulate price 1008 yuan + service charge 80 yuan"......

In this regard, Ctrip customer service staff told reporters that the visa price "pparent", allowing consumers to spend money to understand that Ctrip is also the industry "the first to eat crabs".

< p > not only that, but on the basis of "pparent price", Bai Cheng once again pulled down the < a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_s.asp" > price < /a >, claiming that "the visa price of the whole network should be adjusted below the price of Ctrip"; at the same time, it promised that if the refusal of the consular side was encountered, it would refund the customer in full; that is, once consumers were refused, it would not only earn "service fees" but also compensate the consumers' "consular price" by themselves.

< p > for this, Bai Cheng tourism network customer service staff explained that this series of service measures is to relieve consumers' worries, not simply to fight the "price war".

In addition, reporters found that in the case of sending the us to the United States, the price of Bai Cheng network is 1080 yuan, the Ctrip is 1088 yuan, and the price of the Bai Cheng network is 888 yuan when applying for a German Visa, and the Ctrip is 890 yuan.

< p > reporters visited a number of travel agencies in this city and found that the price of the visa is also varied.

Take the personal travel visa of the United States as an example, from 1899 yuan, 1999 yuan, 2588, and did not separate quotations from the "consulate price + service charge"; that is to say, if the cost of "1008 yuan" of the "consulate price" was reduced, the travel agency earned a service fee of nearly 700 yuan.

For this reason, the travel agency staff quoted 2588 yuan explained that although their prices were higher than those of other agencies, their agents had a high pass rate, and trained and formulated plans for their customers, providing customers with one to one services.

< /p >

< p >, why does the price of the same service differ from hundreds to hundreds? "Travel agencies and agencies dare to pay high prices, precisely because they have identified the blind area of consumers' knowledge."

Liu Simin, an expert in tourism industry, said that consumers could easily know how much service fee the agencies had added if they used the total quotations minus the "consulate price". It was precisely because of the "fuzzy treatment" of the agencies that the prices were increased at will to allow consumers to spend money wrongly.

< p > < strong > trend: price pparency makes industry more standardized < /strong > < /p >

< p > then, what is the current "war situation" for "online" and "offline" competing for the visa service? The reporter found that although the "online" price advantage is obvious, user habits still need time to cultivate, while the "offline" travel agencies and other agencies are still the mainstream of the market.

< /p >

< p > "the trend of the future is that the price is more pparent. The a href=" //www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp "> visa industry < /a > will also be more standardized.

Lu Zhenwang, a well-known business observer, said that online travel websites have become the price spoiler, and let the service fee of the agent visa be exposed to the sunshine, breaking the behavior of the "offline" agency to increase the price at will. But at the same time, we must avoid the vicious competition because of the "price war", so that we can make the "online" and "offline" advantages complement each other and serve consumers better.
