Travel agencies in the city have canceled tours to Hainan and started giving refunds to customers as Typhoon Rammasun approaches the island province.

Tourists already in the province have been advised to remain in their hotels with return flights being arranged soon, travel agencies said.

They will return to Shanghai gradually starting tomorrow.

Three flights between Shanghai and Sanya were canceled yesterday and today. Passengers had the option of a refund or rescheduling their trip.
