TUI has updated its holiday and flight cancellations ahead of the latest travel update which will be announced tomorrow.

The government’s travel announcement, which happens every three weeks, will update the green, amber and red list destinations with changes being enforced from the following week.

TUI has had to cancel plenty of holidays and flights over the last few months due to the pandemic.

This is partly because the operator has said it will never offer flights to red list countries or countries that require people to quarantine on arrival.

Holidaymakers who find that their bookings are affected can ask for a full cash refund or swap their holiday to a new date or location with added incentives.

TUI will continue operating in a number of green list countries including Croatia and Madeira, Barbados, Gibraltar, Malta and Switzerland with non-TUI flights.

And, likewise, holidays to amber list destinations will also go ahead.

These include: Spain, Greece, Italy, Cyprus, Portugal, Dubai and St Lucia, reports the Sun.
