Quake's impact felt online

The devastating earthquake that hit Sichuan province last month has created a huge loss in the real world but the impact has also been felt online.

Top officials from China's major online travel companies said the quake led most travelers to cancel and postpone their trips.

"Sichuan province is one of the major travel destinations and it contributed about 10 percent of our business," said Cui Guangfu, CEO of eLong Inc. "The earthquake will have a significant impact on our business in the second quarter and its long-term impact is still hard to tell."
