Tour operator “Pearl River” sold fake tickets for non-existent flights
Rosaviatsiya representative Sergey Izvolsky said that the tour operator Pearl River falsified electronic tickets for some travelers.
I mean the tourists who flew to Haikou.China) on a Pegasus Fly flight - they received itinerary receipts with false information.
Pearl River sold as part of the tour package air transportation for a regular flight of Pegasus Fly, but flights in December to Haikou or from Haikou from the airline were not scheduled. “In fact, this is a falsification of the document on air transportation,” said S. Izvolsky.
The Russian Consulate General in China reports that there are more than 230 travelers without a return ticket to Hainan. Russian airlines can take out passengers, but when attracting other airlines, there will be a question in financing outbound flights - it is possible to attract funds from Turpomoshchi.
Sergei Izvolsky is sure that people were deliberately misled. The company violated the law on tourist activities and sent tourists to Hainan without a return ticket.
The head of one of the travel companies anonymously comments on the situation: “This office has a declared turnover for the past year – only 45 tourists, financial guarantees are issued at least 10 million, while they have almost a year as brazenly, cynically and with high regularity rent flights to Hainan.” Plus, they give travel agencies a fantastic 18% commission for today, and at low prices. How is this possible economically? No way! There are signs of collecting money for their withdrawal abroad. Natural fraud! And Rostourism looks at all this for six months and does nothing.”
“Pearl River” named the investor for $ 100 million, but he is recognized as a profanation, as he is unable to pay even small debts that are put up for sale to collectors.
