SSoon, Swedes will once again be able to holiday in countries such as Thailand and Mexico. From 1 October, this will be possible as the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs lifts its travel advisory against travel outside the EU. The travel company TUI welcomes the decision and saw a 30% increase in traffic to its website on Friday afternoon.

At last, we can travel again. From 1 October, the travel advisory against travel outside the EU will be lifted. For TUI, it is primarily sales of holidays to three major destinations – Thailand, Mexico and Cape Verde – that will be positively affected by the decision. These are some of the most popular destinations for Swedes during the winter months. Many Swedes have been waiting to book a winter holiday, and traffic to the company’s website increased by 30% shortly after the announcement from the Ministry for Foreign Affairs.

- The world is finally opening up for travel after more than a year of advisories. Very positive news for all Swedes who have been looking forward to travelling and discovering the world again. The news is also very positive for all the destinations we will soon be travelling to, places that are entirely dependent on tourism. Says TUI's Head of Communications, Adam Györki.

Thailand

In Thailand, you can look forward to white beaches, elegant hotels, snorkelling, delicious Thai food, shopping, and an outstanding tropical climate. The fact that we at TUI have the largest selection of trips there is connected to our long experience of the country – over thirty years! We take you to Thailand all year round, and most trips go with convenient non-stop flights.

Mexico

Travelling to Mexico is a way to fulfil holiday dreams. All year round, you'll be met by chalk-white beaches, coconut palms, and a turquoise sea. In addition, there are the temple cities of the Maya people and great snorkelling near our destinations. Choose between fine All Inclusive resorts and cosy beachside bungalows.

Cape Verde

The islands Boavista or Hello are our sun-safe magnets in Cape Verde. More and more people are travelling here who want to discover something new and at the same time have a good place to stay. You can choose between several large resort hotels for families where there is always something to do. But also smaller Bed and Breakfasts close to everyday life. We at TUI ’discovered’ the islands about ten years ago and have developed a wide range of hotels where you will find the best hotels.
