¹To cover the cost of AHH travel services we ask every travelling family to submit a Travel Coordination Fee. This fee of $150.00 per person is paid in advance of your travel to China.   AHH is one of the few agencies, if not the only one, which has a fulltime staff member to serve our families here in the USA.  The fee covers the management and facilitating of all the State side travel process, and the coordination of the travel plans with our contacts in China.  Before you depart for China you will receive a Final China Quote for your China In-country expenses (Hotels, In-country air travel, Ground transportation, etc.).  The Travel Coordination Fee is in addition to the China Quote.
