After all, we are looking back on an eventful 2019. We wanted to report what significance the Fridays for Future movement and the subsequent broad social debate it has triggered about climate protection and reducing CO₂ has for us as a cruise company. We wanted to tell you about our new Environmental Advisory Board, which advises us on these issues. And we wanted to write about the long-term TUI Cruises goal of offering climate-neutral and emission-free cruises. But now the world has been turned upside down. In March, we had to announce that we would temporarily suspend our cruise operations. The world has come to a stop, triggered by the rapid spread of the coronavirus pandemic. Almost our entire social life and large parts of the global economic and service sectors are at a standstill. In March, we brought 18,000 guests home at short notice, safe and sound. Part of our crew is still aboard our vessels, and both ashore and on board we are now preparing with all our strength to resume regular operations. And then the issue of environmental protection will play a key role again – after all, it is firmly anchored in our corporate strategy. An important milestone this year will be the development of a new environmental and climate strategy applicable until 2030. It is important that we develop a strong strategy here that will make a decisive contribution to our sustainable corporate develop- ment moving forward and position us well for the future. We set ourselves very ambitious environmental targets for 2019, and through numerous projects and initiatives, we were able to achieve a great deal last year. We have come a step closer to our goal of emission-free and climate-neutral cruises. This report will also outline the next steps we intend to take on this path. Transparently and comprehensibly – just as you are accustomed to in our communications with you. I wish you all a stimulating read. Wybcke Meier Chief Executive Officer Chairwoman of the Board of Management EDITORIAL 3 TUI Cruises – the company at a glance. The newly established Environmental Advisory Board, awards such as the CruiseCopenhagen Sustainability Award 2019, and the innovative features of the new Mein Schiff 2 are all proof of the consistent environmental course that TUI Cruises has continued to steer in 2019.

Later this year, we celebrate the 50th anni- versary of the keel-laying of the Sunward, the vessel that started the era of the modern cruise industry in 1966. Over the years, we have seen an incredible improvement in what cruise ships can offer passengers.
