CCTV Beijing, May 11 (Reporter Wang Jing) Recently, the topic of bringing pets on the high-speed rail has sparked heated discussions on the Internet. On the afternoon of May 11, in response to the questionnaire survey on the transportation of pets by railway passengers on high-speed rail, the China Railway Customer Service Center responded: the next step will be to further deepen the feasibility study of high-speed rail pets according to the survey opinions.
Previously, the China Railway Customer Service Center launched a questionnaire on high-speed rail pet transportation, and the reporter noted that the questionnaire involved 15 questions such as the type of pet, whether you are willing to try high-speed rail pet transportation, pricing standards, and suggestions for non-pet owners.
On the morning of May 11, the reporter called the railway 12306 customer service hotline, and the relevant operator said that at present, in addition to guide dogs, live animals can not be brought into the high-speed rail carriage, and some pets that meet the requirements can go through the consignment procedures.
A number of railway staff told reporters that passengers with pets need to go to the station on the day of the ride to go through the procedures for pet consignment or escort.
What kind of protection do you pay more attention to in high-speed rail pet transportation?
On the afternoon of May 11, the reporter first logged in to the travel service page in the 12306 applet on his mobile phone, clicked on the "Questionnaire Suggestion" column, and displayed "If you need to use the service, please scan the train in-transit service".
Subsequently, the reporter contacted a number of netizens. They said that the questionnaire is located in the 12306 applet, but to participate in filling in the "free travel code" on the high-speed rail seat, select the questionnaire and suggestions, and enter the "railway passenger high-speed rail pet transportation" survey to fill in.
In the past few days, the questionnaire has caused a heated discussion on the Internet, and netizens are divided into two parties: "support" and "dissupport".
Most pet owners say, "It's a lot more convenient to travel without looking for foster care services, so you don't have to worry about them." However, there are also pet lovers who propose that the boundaries and rights and responsibilities should be clear, or that designated pet compartments should be established.
The survey of "high-speed rail pet transportation for railway passengers" has a total of 15 questions, involving the type of pet, whether there is a need to travel with pets, whether they are willing to try if the railway provides pet transportation services, etc., and in order to reduce the impact on other passengers, which aspects of protection should be paid more attention to in high-speed rail pet transportation; For example, if the railway provides high-speed rail pet transportation services, the expected pricing standard and the content of the most concern; If you are a non-pet person, what are the suggestions for high-speed rail pet transportation and other issues.
On May 11, in response to the questionnaire survey on pet transportation for railway passengers on high-speed rail, China Railway Customer Service Center responded: In recent years, passengers have been consulting more and more about whether high-speed rail can provide pet transportation services.
The questionnaire also counts the number and time of year when travelers need to travel with their pets, such as winter and summer vacations, statutory holidays, weekends and weekdays. The reporter previously called 12306 customer service for consultation, and the staff said that this plan is still in the stage of soliciting opinions.
The China Railway Customer Service Center said that in the next step, it will further deepen the feasibility study of high-speed rail consignment pets according to the survey opinions, and welcome your opinions and suggestions.
What should I do if I need to check in my pet?
The reporter inquired that the "Detailed Rules for Railway Passenger Transport" stipulates that pets that go through consignment procedures need to meet certain requirements, and can take the initiative to attack and hurt people's beasts and birds of prey, such as snakes, scorpions, centipedes, etc., can not be brought on the train.
In response to "bringing pets on the high-speed rail", some experts pointed out that the implementation of this measure should take into account how to avoid possible contradictions. A number of railway staff told reporters that passengers with pets need to go to the station on the day of the ride to go through the procedures for pet consignment or escort. If the transportation distance is less than 200 kilometers and there is no need to feed in the middle, the escort can not be handled. If you need to escort the train, you need to purchase a ticket for the train you want to take in advance, and go through the escort procedures with the ticket.
There are several steps to check in your pet: the pet weight limit is 20 kg, and you can't check it in if you're overweight. Before departure, you need to call for consultation, you can call China Railway 12306 to confirm that the package transportation business has been opened between the departure cities (both ends of the private rooms need to open business), and then you can handle the consignment; In addition, it is necessary to bring its own shipping container, which should be ventilated, strong and firm; There are locking devices, drinking fountains, etc.; The bottom has a padding to prevent the leakage of animal manure; It is also necessary to pay attention to the animal quarantine certificate, and when you need to take your pet to the animal health and quarantine department to apply for the animal quarantine certificate, you should bring the pet immunization certificate, the owner's ID card, etc.
Passengers who are able to do so can contact a professional pet transport company
In recent years, the topic of "pet consignment" has also attracted more and more attention.
The reporter paid attention to the fact that in this exhibition of railway passenger high-speed rail pet transport questionnaire, the questionnaire was also subdivided for the details of the actual operation process, such as mentioning that "in order to reduce the impact on other passengers, which aspect of protection do you pay more attention to in high-speed rail pet transportation", passengers can choose: strengthen platform care, to avoid pet escape; Adopt professional packaging to reduce pet barking; Use deodorizing equipment to reduce the impact of odors; Use a filter device to reduce the flow of pet hair.
The relevant staff of 12306 said that the reason for initiating the survey may be that they usually receive more relevant opinions and suggestions, so they have attracted attention, and the questionnaire survey can systematically collect everyone's opinions.
The reporter learned from the China Railway Customer Service Center that in order to ensure that the inside and outside of public places such as stations and passenger trains are clean and the air is fresh, items that hinder public health, items that can damage or pollute vehicles, and live animals (except for guide dogs and fish, shrimp, crabs, shellfish, and molluscs packaged in closed boxes as food) are not allowed to be carried on board.
The railway department suggests that other means of transportation such as private cars can be chosen, and passengers with conditions can contact professional pet transportation companies to carry out protective transportation of pets, which can not only ensure that pets are properly cared for, but also avoid unnecessary trouble to other passengers and high-speed rail operations.
On the afternoon of May 10, the reporter called the 12306 customer service hotline, and an operator said that whether it will be released in the future depends on whether the head office has relevant notices.
