TUI’s ‘Holiday Promise’
TUI has also unveiled a new ‘Holiday Promise’ it is making to its customers. The company has pledged to only sell and operate holidays that are completely "quarantine free" and “without significant changes” for travellers.
As part of this holiday promise, TUI has decided to cancel all bookings to Florida this year due to the new restrictions being implemented at Disney World.
The travel company explained the decision in a statement, saying, "The decision has been made following new health and safety measures implemented at Walt Disney World to ensure the safety of its guests.
"These changes would significantly impact the holiday experience for many TUI customers who plan their magical and often once-in-a-lifetime Florida holiday."
