TUI's strategy to make Turkey a year-round tourism center

TUI expands Turkish tourism throughout the year. Winter flights to Antalya were increased for British tourists, and the capacity was increased by 30 percent. CEO Sebastian Ebel stated that this move is a "win-win" for everyone.

TUI, Europe's largest travel group, aims to position Turkey as a year-round tourism destination. The company will increase its tourist carrying capacity from England to Antalya by 30 percent, including the winter.

Carrying 1.9 million tourists to Turkey in 2022, TUI emphasizes that Turkey is not just about summer vacations. The CEO of the company, Sebastian Ebel, stated that they plan to offer holiday options throughout the year in line with the increasing flexibility demands of the guests.

British Tourists Will Be Brought to Antalya for 12 Months

TUI's year-round reservation option for its German operations is now also available for British tourists. The tourist carrying capacity from England to Antalya for the winter period has been increased by 30 percent. Ebel stated that Antalya is a popular destination in the winter months, so they want to extend the season to 12 months.

Win-Win Situation: Flexibility and Long Season

Thanks to TUI's integrated business model, it is possible to respond to rapidly changing demands. Ebel states that this creates a win-win situation for TUI, tourists and destinations. TUI guests will have more choice and flexibility, while being able to use company planes and hotels efficiently for longer.
