The Thomas Cook name remains one of the world’s best known and respected brands in travel and we continue our efforts in going further to make dreams come true for our customers. Sustainability is no exception to this committed approach. We recognise the many virtues of travel, including the positive cultural exchange and the boost to local economies, but we are also aware of tourism’s impacts on the environment and societies. Our industry has a responsibility to address these issues and Thomas Cook Group, which founded its business with clear social intentions, is proactive in this area.

Thomas Cook recognise the importance of supporting our supply chain in their management of sustainability issues. We are pleased to work with Travelife to encourage and reward those hotels which are making the changes needed to improve. This is a very positive step, giving customers a way to easily identify those hotels which are working to be more sustainable and recognising those suppliers who are working hardest to achieve these goals.

We believe that our customers share our interest in caring for the future of our planet and caring for those people who they meet when on holiday. With Travelife, customers can choose to stay in hotels which also share this belief.

Thomas Cook want to have sustainability at the core of business strategy. These responsibilities do not sit on the periphery; their importance represents a genuine business risk. Customers, investors, employees, governments and communities no longer look for, but demand that, both time and money be invested in the preservation and protection of the incredible cultures and places we and our customers come into contact with.

Our aim is to make sustainability part of every product we sell, for every customer across all of our businesses.
