DISCLAIMER OF DIFFERENCE CAUSED BY EXCHANGE RATE

(For clients who make payment by credit card only).
Cruise-Yangtze.Com will draw Chinese currency (RMB) from your credit card. The Credit Card Company or Bank will convert this amount to the currency that is normally shown on your credit card.

Cruise-Yangtze.Com converts Chinese RMB to US Dollars at a rate of RMB 7.6 = US$ 1 for our quotations but must charge your credit card in Chinese currency (RMB). Banks and Credit Card companies may use rate that are less favorable to you than our rate. Here is an example:

Cruise-Yangtze.Com quotes RMB760 for travel and this equates to US$100 exchange rate RMB7.6 = US$1 in our quotation. Banks and credit card companies will usually use a rate that enables them to make a profit on the exchange transaction. An example of this would be that they use an exchange of RMB7.5= US$1. This will mean that RMB760 equates to US$101.3 and they will charge $101.3 to your credit card. The difference of $1.3 is the profit that has been made by the bank or credit card. China Highlights has no way to alter this situation and we get no benefit from the difference appearing on your credit card.
