FRANKFURT (Reuters) – TUI, the world’s largest holiday company, is seeing holiday bookings surge to pre-pandemic levels, the head of the group’s German business told a newspaper.
“Our customers have some catching up to do,” said Stefan Baumert of the Funke newspaper group.
“We are confident that we can reach the level of 2019,” he said, adding that he expects travel to become easier this summer due to fewer restrictions related to the coronavirus pandemic.
TUI said last month summer holiday bookings were nearing pre-COVID levels on pent-up demand, with a steady recovery in the UK since restrictions and testing rules were lifted.
