Westerners will not be charged extra for next year Beijing Summer Olympics. More than 7 million tickets are up for grabs this year. Tickets’ prices will be released on 29th November via the official Olympic website with more than 58% of the total tickets going for less than $13.

“If Chinese and Westerners are charged different prices, it will not honor the Olympic spirit,” said Beijing Vice Mayor Liu Jingmin.

Fairness in a nutshell.
