Tui’s chief executive Fritz Joussen said he was expecting a “strong rebound” in leisure travel following the pandemic, with the operator’s summer 2022 bookings forecast to reach 2019 levels.
Joussen added that travel was a “mega trend”, with its growth set to be powered by “favourable” demographics, such as people becoming healthier and having extra time and money to spend on holidays.
“Covid was a pause button and now it’s been unpaused, and we go off again,” insisted Joussen, as Tui released its full-year financial results on Wednesday (8 December).
