Mehr Fernreisen bei TUI


Zitat:

Ausgebaut wurde auch das Angebot in den vom Tsunami betroffenen Ländern, vor allem in Thailand, wo Koh Samet und Koh Phi Phi an der Westküste sowie Koh Shang im Südwesten erstmals auf der TUI-Landkarte vertreten sind. «Für uns sind Thailand, Sri Lanka und die Malediven sehr wichtige Ziele», sagte TUI-Deutschland-Chef Volker Böttcher. Eine mit dem thailändischen Fremdenverkehrsamt organisierte Roadshow soll nun helfen, etwaige Vorbehalte abzubauen. In diesem Sommer hatte es bei der TUI in Phuket einen Buchungsrückgang um 63 Prozent, in Sri Lanka um 34 Prozent und auf den Malediven um 18 Prozent gegeben.

ich glaub ja nicht dran ......

July 30, Colombo: Sri Lanka Police will fine buses that violate rules of the road from next week. Although it was an offence to take the passengers or allow them alight from the buses at undesignated stops along the road, the law has not been strictly applied so far.

From next week Traffic Police will begin first educating both bus workers and the passengers and then to fine those violate the rules of the road. While Buses will be fined Rs.500 for a road offence, the passengers will be fined Rs.50 and will be taken necessary legal action against such offences, Police Department sources said.
