TUI is expanding its offer for Türkiye as a year-round destination with more flexibility and more choice for customers. “About 1.9 million guests travelled to Turkey with TUI in 2022, making Turkey one of the most popular holiday destinations for TUI guests from all markets,” the airline said in a statement.
TUI Deutschland customers can book holidays in Antalya all year round with Antalya being TUI’s fifth-largest destination in the winter season. Now the offer is also being expanded for British guests for the winter season 2023, with increased capacity for Antalya by 30%.
Sebastian Ebel, chief executive, TUI Group: “The demand for holidays goes far beyond the classic summer travel season. This is true for many countries in the western and eastern Mediterranean. Customers want a high degree of flexibility. In addition to the classic trips in high summer, there is an increasing number of customers who spend the winter in the south or travel to the holiday regions for sports and cultural activities in spring and autumn. Many regions have prepared well for the longer season and are launching joint initiatives with TUI.”
“With its integrated business model and its own aircraft and hotels, TUI can react swiftly to changes in demand and make holiday offers possible all year round,” the statement added.
“Mediterranean destinations are among the top destinations for summer holidays. This will also be the case in the future. But we see clear potential for additional offers throughout the year. The season is getting longer. This creates additional opportunities for the destinations and for TUI,” added Ebel.
From Germany, TUI already offers year-round tours to Palma de Mallorca, Faro and Jerez in addition to Turkey.
