China Eases Some Restrictions on Travel Agencies’ Cross-Province Services

China has eased some restrictions on the domestic tourism industry after policymakers tweaked the country’s “zero-Covid” policy.

The Ministry of Culture and Tourism abolished the “circuit breaker” system that prohibited travel agencies from organizing cross-region tours to a destination where any county or district had areas designated “middle-risk” or “high-risk” for Covid, according to a Tuesday statement.
