117 wrongdoers banned from traveling by train, plane

BEIJING - China on Friday unveiled two lists of a total of 117 wrongdoers who will be restricted from buying train tickets or taking planes.
China Railway Corporation said 31 wrongdoers banned from traveling by train include ticket scalpers, those caught smoking on high-speed trains or taking trains without tickets, and those who have disturbed the order of stations or trains.
The list will be published for a seven-working-day period, and the punishment will become effective if no effective objections are received during this time.
Those who take trains without tickets will be restricted from buying train tickets until they repay the ticket fare, while ticket scalpers, smokers on high-speed trains and those who disturb the order of stations or trains will be restricted for 180 days.
The Civil Aviation Administration of China published a list of 86 wrongdoers who will be banned from traveling by air for one year.
The list includes people who received administrative penalties after being found in airport safety inspections with objects against the country's laws and regulations, and those who received administrative punishments for using other peoples' identification certificates.
Earlier this year, China announced plans to impose tougher punishments on serious credit defaulters starting on May 1, restricting them from real estate transactions, as well as taking planes and trains.
