The bottlenecks in China and in the host destinations have mostly disappeared, allowing the pent-up demand for business trips, honeymoons, family visits and leisure and special interest trips to be started.  For almost 20 years COTRI has supported international service providers and destinations to cater successfully and sustainably for Chinese visitors, from the years dominated by package tours and shopping at “must-see” destinations to the new wave of visits to newly discovered destinations for new experiences and activities in smaller customised groups or as FITs. Information – Adaptation – Success, COTRI is providing support along all steps of the way, based on continuous research, decades of experience, specialisation and long-term partnerships.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_empty_space][vc_empty_space][vc_custom_heading text=SERVICES font_container=tag:h1|font_size:62|text_align:center|color:%23353535 css=.vc_custom_1682275779698{background-color: #efefef !important;} el_class=separator el_id=services][vc_empty_space][vc_row_inner css=.vc_custom_1682490007484{background-color: #d32326 !important;} el_class=name-row][vc_column_inner width=3/4 css=.vc_custom_1710322530135{margin-bottom: 10px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;}][vc_custom_heading text=RECOVERY DAY font_container=tag:h1|font_size:32|text_align:left|color:%23ffffff css=.vc_custom_1682543292906{margin-left: 20px !important;} link=url:https%3A%2F%2Fchina-outbound.com%2Frecovery-day][vc_column_text css=.vc_custom_1693383624847{margin-left: 20px !important;padding-right: 80px !important;}] Which strategy is the right one for the New Wave of Chinese Visitors, which segments of the source market are fitting with your products and services, how to restart the engagement with the Chinese market?
