TUI reduces losses as travel soars, holiday package prices rise

German travel giant TUI’s bottom line is on the cusp of returning to the black as the global tourism industry bounces back after being battered by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Before interest and taxes and adjusted for other factors, the TUI Group earned €409 million ($434 million), according to fiscal year figures released Wednesday, compared to the more than €2 billion lost in 2020-21.

Hanover-based TUI still posted a loss attributable to shareholders of €277 million in the 12 months ending in September.

Revenue at the world’s largest holiday travel agency almost quadrupled to €16.55 billion from €4.73 billion.

TUI has benefited from the resurgence in travel demand, and prices for many vacation packages have increased. “The summer was strong,” CEO Sebastian Ebel said.

For fiscal 2023, the group – which comprises travel agencies, online portals, airlines, hotels and cruise ships – expects a strong increase in revenue and a significant increase in underlying EBIT.
