Where Can I Go On Holiday?

In light of the impact of COVID-19 on worldwide travel, we’ve been reviewing our programme to ensure we can still take you on safe and enjoyable holidays. Throughout August, we’ll be operating a reduced summer holiday programme to the below destinations, flying to some with our own airline and to others with our trusted partner airlines.

Holidays during the COVID-19 pandemic will be slightly different to what you’re used to. But, we’re doing everything we can to make sure that you have a brilliant TUI holiday. We understand how important it is to know what to expect while you’re away. That’s why we’ve put together this page to fill you in on everything you need to know about where you can go on holiday.
