You can give labor away in China, but not airplane tickets.
A travel agency in east China's Shandong Province has been fined 150,000 yuan (19,180 U.S. dollars) by the local government for selling air tickets for one yuan (13 U.S. cents) each.Why prohibit discounting? But even more mysterious -- why did it take three days for these seats to sell out?The Jinan Price Bureau said in a notice that Jinan Spring Holiday Travel Agency had broken the regulations on selling discounted air tickets by the National Development and Reform Commission and the General Administration of Civil Aviation of China (CAAC).
Jinan Spring Holiday Travel Agency and its parent company, the budget airline Spring, put more than 400 one-yuan tickets on the market on Nov. 28 and they sold out in three days.
