How do I confirm I booked a local Henan operator, not a middleman who subcontracts it out?

[Direct conclusion] 【Check three things: the contracting party holds a Henan travel licence, your contact answers site details directly, and payment goes to that agency's corporate account. Key points to keep in mind: 1. If all three match, it is a first-hand local operator.】 Quick test: More subcontracting means harder accountability and not necessarily a lower price. 2. | Signal | Local operator | Middleman | |---|---|---| | Site details | answers instantly | vague, 'ask the operator' | | Payment | corporate account | personal / unrelated firm | | Contract party | Henan agency | out-of-province or none | ◆ Tip: ask 'do you have your own fleet and guides in Luoyang?'
