新华网上海４月９日电（记者吴宇）新西兰总理约翰·基９日在此间宣布，为了吸引更多中国旅客，新西兰已决定赋予中国旅客两年内多次往返免签证待遇，这一新政策将于下月正式实施。
约翰·基说，２０１２年，中国已超越美国和英国，成为仅次于澳大利亚的新西兰第二大旅游客源地，前往新西兰旅游、度假、留学及从事商务活动的中国旅客超过２０万人次，“新政策将进一步为中国旅客带来便利”。
“我们希望未来一年中国旅客数量再比２０１２年增长一倍。”约翰·基说。
约翰·基同时宣布，新西兰将开通一个中英双语网站，专门服务于中国赴新移民及旅行签证。
４年前，约翰·基曾来上海推广旅游。当时，中国全年赴新旅客数量不过１１万人次左右，是新西兰第四大客源国。
据新西兰航空公司首席执行官克里斯托弗·卢克松介绍，开通新西兰至中国直航航线七年来，除了越来越多中国旅客前往新西兰，中国对新西兰人的吸引力也在不断增强，去年有６．５万人次新西兰人前来中国旅游观光。

The length of visas for China's frequent travellers to New Zealand will be extended, Prime Minister John Key has announced in Shanghai.
The length of the multiple-entry visitor visas routinely granted to independent Chinese travellers will be extended from 12 months to 24 from May 1, Mr Key said.
Independent travellers are those not visiting on organised tours.
If they return to New Zealand within two years of the visa being issued they won't need another one.
Mr Key also said Immigration New Zealand would improve the bilingual China section on its website to make it easier for Chinese visitors to apply for a visa.
Advice previously provided across three parts would be brought together in the one location.
"China is our most rapidly growing tourism market and we need to ensure we're offering Chinese visitors the highest-quality experiences and meeting their expectations," Mr Key said.
Over the past year, more than 200,000 Chinese visitors came to New Zealand, up about 38 per cent on the previous year. They spent around $651 million here.
China is now the second largest source of overseas visitors to New Zealand.
The new moves are the result of a review of the China tourism market by a panel of New Zealand government and industry experts.
China Southern Airlines already has a fast-track arrangement with the Immigration Service for their gold and silver frequent flyers.
Unlike other travellers they don't have to produce evidence of sufficient funds to support themselves as long as they can show flight records for the previous two years.
Immigration chief executive Nigel Bickle yesterday re-signed the agreement with the airline during a visit by Prime Minister John Key to the airline's headquarters in Guangzhou. 哇塞哇塞~~太爽啦 ~！~~ 会不会引发机票暴涨哦~~~{:6_711:}{:6_706:} 太爽了，这个真是好事 xiaopangge222 发表于 2013-4-9 20:54 static/image/common/back.gif
