Altitude sickness is not a disease but a normal physical reaction to high altitude. Almost every traveler may experience mild symptoms such as dizziness, shortness of breath, or fatigue. With proper rest, hydration, and gradual acclimatization, these symptoms usually disappear within one or two days.

At China International Travel Service (CITS Global), all high-altitude hotels we use — except in areas like Mount Everest where conditions don’t allow — are equipped with oxygen-supplied rooms. We never encourage guests to buy overpriced oxygen cans. Instead, we recommend renting or sharing portable oxygen devices at fair market rates. Most importantly, CITS Global provides every traveler with additional “Plateau Travel Insurance” for extra peace of mind throughout the journey.

We recommend seeing a doctor for professional advice before your trip to Tibet.
