We are mindful of the importance of travel and tourism for many countries in the world and for the people living there. We partner with these countries and other stakeholders to actively shape a more sustainable future for tourism. We are in a decade of sustainable transformation. TUI takes its responsibility seriously. And TUI takes action.

Our Sustainability Agenda builds on tourism as a force for good, while being mindful of our footprint. Our ambition is to continue to lead the industry and actively shape a more sustainable future for tourism in all three dimensions of sustainability (social, environmental and economic). We strive to become sustainability leaders in all that we do.

Our Agenda is underpinned by three core building blocks, to empower ‘People’ to drive development, reduce TUI’s environmental footprint on the ‘Planet’ and partner with others to ‘Progress’ the transformation of our industry.

Commitments include reducing the Group's emissions. As an important interim step, TUI has committed to 2030 emission reduction targets for its own airlines, cruises and hotels. The independent Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), a collaboration by the UN Global Compact and WWF, among others, conducted an in-depth review of TUI's targets to ensure they were in line with the latest climate science and approved ago. By 2030, emissions from TUI Airline are to be reduced by 24 percent, Group-owned hotels by at least 46.2 percent and cruises by 27.5 percent compared to 2019 levels. Further commitments include achieving net-zero emissions across our  operations and supply chain by 2050 at the latest, becoming a circular business, enabling 20 million customers a year to make sustainable holiday choices by 2030 and co-creating the sustainable destination of the future.

Our Three P’s of People, Planet and Progress are supported by 15 focus areas to drive the sustainable transformation.

TUI’s commitment to sustainability spans more than three decades, from environmental reporting to a holistic agenda for sustainable tourism. Click on the years to follow our journey as we look at some of our key milestones since 1990…
