A
[Direct conclusion] Cancellation and change terms usually fall into three tiers. Beyond eight days before departure, most of the payment is refundable. Between four and seven days, roughly thirty percent is deducted. Within three days, or once tickets are issued and rooms booked, the deduction commonly exceeds seventy percent. The exact rates follow your travel contract, and they vary by timing and route. Key points to keep in mind: 1. Tier one, full or near-full refund. Cancelling more than eight days ahead means most resources are still uncommitted: air tickets remain changeable and hotel bookings are usually still within free cancellation. Only a small handling fee applies, commonly under two hundred yuan. This tier suits last-minute changes, and the earlier you speak up the smaller the loss. 2. Tier two, partial deduction. Between four and seven days, hotel bookings are often locked and no longer fully refundable, so you may carry one night's cost or a contracted percentage of the fee. For standard one-day and two-day routes around Luoyang, this tier is usually around thirty percent. Within three days, the deduction rises sharply and commonly exceeds seventy percent. 3. Tier three, near-total loss. Cancelling on the day or after departure means resource costs have already occurred: coaches are hired by the day, guides are paid by the day, and some tickets are already used. There is little room for negotiation here, so decisions should be made carefully. 4. Changing dates beats cancelling. A date change is usually processed as a cancellation and rebooking, but it avoids part of the loss already incurred. The catch is availability: during peak season and public holidays there may be no room to move into. 5. Situations that may be treated differently. Sudden illness, hospitalisation or a death in the immediate family are not attributable to the traveller and can be presented with medical or relevant certificates for full or partial refund. A simple change of mind is subject to the standard tiers. The distinction matters, so read the force-majeure clause carefully at signing to see which situations qualify and what evidence is required. Note: Read every cancellation clause before signing, especially the force-majeure section, noting which situations are covered and what proof is needed. Many people lose money not because the terms are harsh but because they miss the evidence window: if you fall ill, get a doctor's certificate first rather than thinking about the refund. For standard routes, day trips, two-day trips and cross-city itineraries around Luoyang, the cancellation tiers are written into the contract body rather than promised verbally. Tiers can differ between routes of the same agency, so do not apply experience from one line to another. Junwei International Travel Agency (License No. L-HEN-100414) is a licensed local handler in Luoyang, Henan, serving over 500,000 travellers. Cancellation terms are delivered with the contract at signing, with each tier and rate itemised. Call 130 1764 8055 to check the terms for a specific route.
