Eager Britons will be able to book travel to many popular summer sun locations, with increased flexibility and some free kids' places available.

TUI stated: "Destinations with exclusive, direct TUI charter flights from various regional UK airports [to] Senegal, Cape Verde, Goa and Thailand.

"Now offering more flexibility and choice for customers, TUI has added both 10- and 11-night durations to Thailand for next winter, thanks to additional TUI flying from London Gatwick and Manchester to Phuket.

"TUI has also added more regional flying options for customers based near Newcastle and Cardiff airports, with a new fortnightly service from Cardiff to Cancun available and additional flight from Newcastle on selected dates in March and April 2026."

A total of 42 tours will be on sale for winter, which is double the size of last year's programme. Customers can pick from private tours, guided tours and self-drive.

Commercial director for TUI UK Phillip Iveson commented: “We’re delighted to have an incredible range of holidays for winter 2025 going on sale up until Easter 2026.

"This year we have more free kids’ places for winter than ever before, low deposits and direct debit options which we know are so important in helping customers plan and budget.

"With exclusive direct flying to Asia and North and West Africa, a multitude of beach hotels available from the Balearics to Bali, guided tours and winter breaks to Lapland and Iceland – whatever kind of getaway customers are after they’ll find it with TUI.”

Those looking for more holiday options will also benefit as Jet2 announces new flights to Spain sooner than expected.

The airline told holidaymakers: "Jet2.com and Jet2holidays have brought forward the launch of flights and holidays from their newest base, Bournemouth Airport, to February 2025 as a result of the incredible response from customers and independent travel agents."

Bournemouth was set to become Jet2's 12th base in the UK next year on April 1, 2025.

However, "consistent and strong demand" means the launch at Birmingham Airport has been brought forward by two months.
