No tour packages for "${destination}"

Error message

No tour packages for "${destination}"

What it means

An EmptyResultError raised by `ctrip tour` when the vacations.ctrip.com tour search page explicitly reports an empty result state (WAIT_FOR_VACATIONS_JS returned 'empty'), meaning no tour packages match the destination keyword. Unlike the render-failure errors, this means the page loaded fine and genuinely has no matching tour lines.

Solutions

1. Retry with a major tourist destination keyword such as 北京, 三亚, or 马尔代夫
2. Use the destination's official Chinese name
3. If you expected tours, try the `ctrip package` command (flight+hotel tab) instead
4. Catch EmptyResultError and try alternative keywords in your script

Example fix

// before
const tours = await runCli('ctrip', 'tour', destination);
// after
let tours;
try {
  tours = await runCli('ctrip', 'tour', destination);
} catch (e) {
  if (e.name === 'EmptyResultError') tours = await runCli('ctrip', 'package', destination);
  else throw e;
}

const q = String(dest || '').trim();
if (q.length < 2) console.warn('short/obscure keywords often yield no tour results');

try {
  const tours = await runCli('ctrip', 'tour', dest);
} catch (e) {
  if (e.name === 'EmptyResultError') {
    tours = await runCli('ctrip', 'package', dest); // try flight+hotel tab
  } else throw e;
}

When it happens

Trigger: Running `opencli ctrip tour <destination>` where Ctrip's tour search returns zero .list_product_item cards for that keyword — obscure destinations, misspelled names, or destinations Ctrip does not sell tour packages for.

Common situations: Searching tiny towns or non-tourist locations; romanized/English spellings Ctrip does not index; destinations only served by the package (机+酒) tab but not the tour tab; typo'd Chinese characters.

Understand the failure class

Background: EmptyResultError / "no results found": when an API or scraper succeeds but returns zero rows — this error's family across 9 libraries.
