According to agreements, the direct bus launches eight-time round trip per month. The ticket is priced at 70 US dollars. Outbound Chinese passengers could buy tickets straight after going through passport and visa procedures while overseas passengers could buy tickets via tourist agencies. The bus is scheduled to be on voyage at nine am. every Tuesday and Friday. Multi-language speaking conductors will render top quality service at journey, and passengers can have access to first aid service, beverage and souvenirs, said director of the contracted Himalaya Passenger Transport Co., Ltd.
