Your personal TUI travel credit is now redeemable for you

TUI TRAVEL CREDIT - THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

• What is the TUI travel credit?

  We introduced the TUI travel credit temporarily and exclusively for tours cancelled due to the Corona crisis. Your personal TUI travel credit will be applied like a means of payment to your next booked TUI trip. The TUI Travel Credit consists of the payment(s) already made to TUI for your cancelled trip(s) with arrival in the period from 14 March to 31 August 2020 inclusive.

• Where can I find my customer and transaction number?

  You will find your customer number in your letter for the TUI Travel Credit, which you received by e-mail or by post. You will find your transaction number of the cancelled trip on your TUI confirmation/invoice in the top right-hand corner under "transaction".

• Why should I opt for the TUI travel credit?

  By opting for TUI Travel Credit, you are not only helping us, but also our partners - whether your personal contacts at the travel agency, the tour guides in the holiday destinations, the hoteliers or restaurateurs and their families on the world's most beautiful beaches.

  It is also worth it for you! As a thank you, you will receive your personal extra credit of up to 150 euros per booking.

• Is my TUI Travel Credit guaranteed?

  This is what the German Federal Government has in mind. In the decision of the Corona Cabinet of the German Federal Government of 02 April 2020, one of the conditions for the voucher redemption is that the credit balance must be covered against insolvency, if necessary also with state reinsurance, see also: Information of the Federal Government on voucher redemption (information in German). This request has been addressed accordingly to the EU Commission for resolution or release. We expect the EU Commission to respond shortly.

  It is also worth it for you! As a thank you, you will receive your personal extra credit of up to 150 euros per booking.

• How do I get a TUI Travel Credit?

  The regulation applies to customers who have made their payment directly to the tour operator TUI and have a cancelled trip with arrival in the period 14 March to 31 August 2020 inclusive. If you have paid the trip directly to your travel agent, please contact your local representative.

• How will I be informed about my TUI Travel Credit?

• What can I do if the personal TUI Travel Credit in the TUI letter does not correspond to the payment I have made?

  Unfortunately, in a few cases there are deviations. The status of your TUI travel credit was determined a few days before your letter was sent, therefore deviations from the payments actually made are possible. You can view your current TUI travel credit balance online at www.tui.com/reiseguthaben (website only in German) at any time.

  If your first booking does not use up 100% of your credit, you can of course use it for further trips. Important: The trips must be booked on the customer number from the letter you received.

• Can I have my TUI Travel Credit from various trips cancelled due to corona be bundled together for a new booking?

  Yes, all individual TUI travel credits are assigned to your customer number and are charged accordingly for bookings made under this customer number. Several TUI travel credits can thus be credited for a single new booking.

• Where can I book my new trip?

  To make a new holiday booking with your TUI travel credit, contact the travel agency where you booked the original or cancelled trip. If you booked your trip on www.magiclife.com, please also contact www.magiclife.com to make a new holiday booking.

  Yes, your TUI Travel Credit will also be offset against outstanding payments for existing bookings.

• Can I also arrange a withdrawal of my payment?
