In January of this year, Liu Demin, a judge of the Guangdong Higher People's Court, went to Shanghai Disneyland with his daughter, who was just 10 years old, but was asked to buy an adult ticket because her daughter's height exceeded the prescribed standard. Liu Demin believes that the children's ticket standard is unreasonable, so Shanghai Disneyland is appealed to the court. On the afternoon of July 9, the case was heard in the Shanghai Pudong New District Court. Shanghai Disneyland believes that the park ticket rules are set properly and the price is in line with the market price. However, the Beijing Youth Daily reporter found that there are currently six Disney parks open to the world. Except for Shanghai Disneyland, the other five have a preferential ticket policy based on the age of children. At the scene of the trial, the two sides debated several disputes, and the case was not pronounced in court.
I think the child ticket standard is unreasonable
Judge v. Shanghai Disney
Liu Demin is a judge of the Supreme People's Court of Guangdong Province. In January this year, as an ordinary tourist, he went to Shanghai Disneyland with his daughter who had just turned 10 years old. Before he traveled, he spent 499 yuan on the online platform to buy a parent-child package. He did not expect to have trouble when he exchanged paper tickets for admission. The two staff members at the redemption window visually determined whether the child had more than 1.4 meters. Disagreement.
The staff asked the child to take off the shoes and visually. A staff member at the ticket purchasing window thought that the child did not exceed 1.4 meters, but the staff at the ticket exchange window insisted that the child had exceeded 1.4 meters. In order not to affect other tourists, Liu Demin chose to spend another 479 yuan for the child to buy an adult ticket and enter the park.
Afterwards, Liu Minde believed that the way Shanghai Disney set the ticket preferential policy for children's height was unreasonable, so the Shanghai Disneyland Park Authority Shanghai International Theme Park Co., Ltd. was brought to court.
On July 9, the case was heard in the Shanghai Pudong New Area Court.
Except Shanghai Disney
Children's tickets are determined by age
Plaintiff's lawyer Li Junmin believes that the definition of children's tickets by height is not reasonable enough. It is a relatively reasonable and fair standard to define children's tickets by age. Moreover, among the six Disney parks in the world, except for Shanghai Disney, the other five parks are based on age.
In addition, Li Junmin believes that China's laws have clearly stipulated that children have equal rights in accordance with the law, and operators may not use the format contract to set unfair and unreasonable provisions that increase consumer liability or exempt the operator's responsibility. In the process of fulfilling the preferential obligations, Disneyland only allows children under 1.4 meters to purchase children's tickets or parent-child tickets in the form of format clauses. It is very clear that the right to purchase and use children's tickets for children under 18 years old and above 1.4 meters in height is deprived. Therefore, the content of the agreement is unfair and invalid.
In addition, the plaintiff's lawyer said that the child ticket should be determined by the height as the standard. As early as 2010, China’s former Ministry of Railways had revised the “Regulations for Railway Passenger Transportâ€, stipulating that children who travel 1.2-1.5 meters tall with adults should purchase children’s tickets and change the original “children 1.1-1.4 meters tallâ€. The rules for the purchase of child tickets should be purchased. The plaintiff's lawyer believes that it is a general trend to determine the child's ticket by age. For example, on June 1 this year, 16 scenic spots in Henan announced that they would be exempted from the age.
Therefore, the plaintiff requested the court to order the defendant company to return the Shanghai Disneyland ticket purchase fee of RMB 479, and to modify the current Shanghai Disneyland children's ticket purchase standard. The child ticket standard can be determined by reference to Hong Kong, China. From 3 years old to 11 years old (both in this number); children under 3 years old (excluding this number) are exempt from the ticket.
Shanghai Disney:
Child ticket standard is in line with market positioning
Disney lawyers believe that although only Disney Disney in the world's six parks worldwide is based on height to determine children's tickets, the other five parks are based on age standards, but the specific terms are different, for example, the plaintiff's children Although she is just 10 years old, she still needs to buy a standard ticket if she goes to two Disneylandes in the United States. At the same time, Disney said that the ticketing instructions for the online platform have clearly stated that the height of 1.4 meters is the standard for children to buy tickets. The plaintiff knew it at the time of ticket purchase.
"At present, our price is the market price." The agent of Shanghai International Theme Park Co., Ltd. believes that the current Shanghai Disneyland ticket rules are set properly and the price is also in line with the market price. Therefore, the court is required to dismiss Liu Demin's lawsuit.
Lawyers in Disney said that according to the "Regulations on the Administration of Ticket Price of Shanghai Tour Points", Shanghai Disney has the right to independently set the ticket price and ticket type, and it is very common to determine the child ticket based on the height. For example, Shanghai Oriental Pearl, Ocean Aquarium, Happy Valley and Shanghai Science and Technology Museum, the maximum height of children's tickets is 1.4 meters. At the same time, because most Chinese children do not have ID cards, it is easier to use height as a standard in public places with large traffic. Therefore, this is a localization measure that gives visitors a better experience. Not unfair.
The case was not sentenced in court.
expert's point
Children’s social welfare should be given priority
The reporter of Beiqing Daily noticed that in addition to Shanghai Disneyland, Disneyland in other countries and regions in the world, according to the age of children, the preferential policy for tickets.
The latest Children's Height and Weight Standards Table shows that Chinese 6-year-old boys range in height from 111.2 to 121 cm, girls from 109.7 to 119.6 cm, 11-year-old boys from 132.1 to 152.1 cm, and girls from 133.4 to 153.3 cm. That is to say, according to Disney's ticket standard, a child who grows tall will buy a half-ticket at around 6 years old, and a full-vote ticket at around 11 years old.
In addition, the reporter of Beiqing Daily found that the National Development and Reform Commission's 2012 Notice on Further Implementing the Preferential Policies for Youth Ticket Prices has adopted the dual track system of “height and ageâ€. According to the Notice, free of charge for children under 6 years of age (including 6 years old) or 1.2 meters (including 1.2 meters); for minors aged 6 years (excluding 6 years old) to 18 years old (including 18 years old) Half-tickets are applied to full-time undergraduate and below.
Some experts said that it is a long-standing dispute to judge whether children can be exempted from tickets or purchase discount tickets by height. However, whether it is based on height or age, we should adhere to the social welfare of children as a priority.
If the ticket seller continues to use the height as the criterion, the height standard should be continuously improved according to the average height of Chinese children. And if the age is used as a criterion, the child's age verification problem is a problem. At present, in addition to the household registration book, most of the children do not have proof of age. It is not realistic for parents to take their children out of the household account. You can try to make identification for children based on the experience of the old age certificate. On the other hand, if the garden side adopts the verification of identity documents and the principle of real-name ticket purchase, there will also be problems of increasing costs. For example, during the peak hours of winter and summer vacations, due to the surge in the number of children, the extension of the queue time will also affect the experience of tourists. .
