The holidays with non-TUI flights to the Maldives, Sri Lanka, Thailand and the UAE have also been cancelled until July 11 while TUI holidays to Florida have been cancelled until June 30. The tour operator has been forced to cancel more holidays in recent weeks due to the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the green list.
TUI said that they want to offer our customers flexibility and choice this summer, so where borders are open and FCDO advice allows travel, they will operate to those destinations as planned. They are constantly reviewing our holiday programme and cancellations in line with the government updates every three weeks, with the next update expected on June 24. All customers will be contacted as soon as possible if there is any change to their booking.
They also said that all customers impacted by these cancellations will be contacted directly and will be able to request a full cash refund, or to change to a later date or alternative holiday and receive a booking incentive.
Portugal, one of the few holiday destinations on the green list which doesn’t require a United Kingdom quarantine, was removed just three weeks after being added.
