7月1日0点，上海世博会个人门票正式启动。7月2日17点，短短不到2天的时间，来自上海世博局票务中心的最新信息显示，世博会个人门票销售量已达到5.5万张。期待“让生活更美好”的世博之旅，使世博会的门票销售持续升温。 尽管距离上海世博会开幕还有300多天，一些民众已早早规划10个月后的“世博之旅”。从昨天一早开始，众多购票者就通过指定销售网点、互联网和电话预订等途径，踊跃购买印有吉祥物海宝图案的上海世博会门票。购票者中既有白发苍苍的老者，也有刚刚完成高考的学生，甚至还有金发碧眼的“老外”。 The tickets for the first three days of visits to the Shanghai World Expo are either sold out or in short supply. Yesterday marked the first day that selling began to the public around the world via the four main Expo ticket agents in China and the rush came. Up to 5pm yesterday, about 55,000 tickets were sold during the day. Tickets for the first three days (May 1-3) and the National Day (October 1-7) holidays, known as peak-day tickets, were sold out at China Post, an operator on its hotline said. The Bank of Communications has begun to set daily limits on the number of peak-day tickets to be sold, its hotline said.
