TUI winter bookings close to pre-pandemic levels

As Reuters reports, TUI Group (TUI.DE) is seeing the first signs of a return to profitability. This is all due to strong demand for vacation trips, which for the winter period are almost 78% in line with levels recorded before the Covid-19 pandemic. The company communicated today that it is maintaining its annual forecasts.

Nonetheless, accelerating inflation, which may discourage some consumers from spending extra, remains a threat all the time. In this case, the energy crisis in Europe is making a strong mark, as well as interest rate hikes, which strongly affect those with debt. The domestic situation is also a problem, particularly liquidity and debt.

The most popular winter destinations are expected to be the Canary Islands, Mexico, Egypt and Cape Verde.
