A cooperative agreement was signed recently by Shandong Airlines and the Qingdao Tourism Administration (QTA) to promote their joint development.

Under the agreement, Shandong Airlines and QTA will jointly develop the domestic tourism market by initiating marketing activities together in targeted tourist source markets.

For inbound tourism, the two will organize promotional teams to Taiwan, Japan and South Korea to promote Qingdao to the world and to attract more foreign tourists.

In addition, a new independent travel product combining air tickets, hotel accommodation, and entry to scenic spots will be developed specially for people with paid leave.

A workgroup will also be set up to supervise the implementation of agreement and specific cooperation programs.
