History

Having for more than 70 years been an industrial business operating as Preussag AG the company we know today as TUI AG entered the Tourism market in 1997 with the acquisition of one of Germany's leading tourism companies Hapag-Lloyd. Further tourism acquisitions followed and the company started to exit from its industrial businesses. Acquiring some of the biggest names in European tourism including, Thomson, Fritidsresor and Nouvelles Frontières and shareholdings in the hotel groups RIU and Magic Life TUI AG created one of the world's leading tourism groups.

In 2007 the tour operating businesses of TUI AG, merged with the UK listed First Choice Holidays PLC, a tour operating business started in 1973 which had both Mainstream and Specialist businesses to formTUI Travel PLC, listed on the London Stock Exchange. The company's major shareholder with a stake of 54 per cent was TUI AG.
