Overview

  • By early June, Tui had sold around 60 percent of its summer capacity in Germany, surpassing last year’s pace.
  • The operator has already filled 90 percent of its seats for Spain and Portugal, with demand for Mallorca expected to tighten further.
  • Tui’s cruise bookings continue a strong and sustainable upswing, marking a standout growth area.
  • Bookings for travel to the United States have receded as euro strength motivates customers to shift plans toward Canada, the Caribbean, Gulf states and Southeast Asia.
  • Having secured or hedged its currency needs last autumn, Tui has largely shielded its summer bookings from the recent weakness of the US dollar.
