Significant gapsPending Review

TUI is a tourism giant with massive operational emissions (11.67Mt CO2e FY2024) and weak absolute reduction targets. Its airline division — the largest emitter — commits only to intensity improvements, not absolute cuts. Legal rulings found greenwashing in climate advertising; lobbying alignment with aviation's climate obstruction remains undisclosed.
