The TUI Group Executive Committee is convening this week at TUI Poland’s headquarters in Warsaw, highlighting the critical role the Polish market plays in TUI’s expansion strategy across Eastern Europe. Over one million Polish travelers already choose TUI for their holidays, with Turkey, Greece, and Spain emerging as top summer destinations. This number is set to grow significantly, driven by increased brand awareness, a unified technological infrastructure, and the integration of artificial intelligence. In Poland, the primary sales channels include the TUI.pl website and a network of 204 TUI travel outlets.
During his visit to Warsaw, TUI CEO Sebastian Ebel said: “New markets, new products and more customers: TUI Poland is the blueprint for the expansion of our business in Eastern Europe and for additional growth. TUI Poland has a very clear positioning, and that is the source of its success: Focus, customer centricity and travel offerings tailored to the Polish market and the customers’ preferences. These include not only the export hit of package tours, but also additional services such as excursions and insurance.”
David Schelp is the TUI Group Executive Board member responsible for Markets & Airline. Speaking at the Group Executive Committee meeting in Warsaw, he said: “TUI is currently active in 16 source markets. More will be added in the future. The Polish market is particularly important for Eastern Europe: TUI Poland is leading the way and is already demonstrating what TUI’s future in new markets will look like: customer focus, entrepreneurial thinking and cost awareness. In Poland, we have rolled out a business model and technology platform that we will now bring to new markets in Eastern Europe. I am convinced that we will replicate the success of TUI Poland in other countries, too.”
TUI Group has unveiled its strategic plan for expanding in the Czech Republic, with the goal of doubling its customer base by next summer. This initiative is part of a broader expansion effort in Eastern Europe, where similar growth strategies have been developed. These regions fall under TUI’s newly established Expansion Businesses unit, within the Markets & Airline Board division led by David Schelp. The strategy not only targets emerging markets such as TUI Poland but also focuses on consolidating scalable global products and services. Among these is TUI Cars, a platform designed for car rental bookings. The Expansion Businesses play a crucial role in TUI’s growth strategy, aiming to attract more customers through innovative offerings in untapped markets.
