TUI China has resumed business operations, offering domestic tours for holidaymakers in China. Three months after the subsidiary had to completely stop selling tours, the company is now offering mainly short trips to the mountains and Chinese beach resorts under the product name TUI Selection.

The portfolio also includes programmes near major cities. This means that tourism and air travel are once again taking place in China.

“Our offices in Beijing and Shanghai were also in operation during the crisis, but holidays could not be sold. Now we see a clear backlog demand for holiday travel. TUI China will gradually increase its range of offers in the next few weeks,” said TUI chief executive Fritz Joussen. The country is on the way back to normality and Chinese are allowed to travel within their own country.
