This report consists of two parts, the first part consisting of the analysis of Thomas Cook in Tour operator industry in the European market in the comparison with TUI. The analysis follows several key concepts the DEPEST, Business strategy, Human resource Management, Sustainable business and Ethics and the financial aspect. The advantages come from strategy, Human Resource Management strategy and Recruiting and financial aspects. Their strategy advantage comes from a decentralized structure, where more is asked of the employees to make decisions with in their working team or by themselves, it has shown that the centralized and leader oriented way of TUI is less flexible especially when fast decisions should be made. Towards the strategic part we feel that Thomas Cook is better since it also works with owned hotels and other facilities that give an edge in costs since the profit is for Thomas Cook. The financial aspect shows that Thomas Cook, profitability, and Operating ratio were better over the last 3 years. Especially the gross profit is higher for Thomas Cook and although after that the operating profit margin and Net profit margin are just higher due to lower costs. Based on the conclusion of part one, we decided to continue with Thomas Cook to develop an International Business plan. The market we chose is China due to its rapid growth of economy and fast changing in quality of live. Moreover, due to the political and economic hurdles in the European fronts in the last year, and this may be only the beginning, China is a very lucrative market for Thomas Cook. We believe that the our strategy to joint venture with China Southern Airlines is expected bring Thomas Cook out of the sluggish financial situation in the European Union. This strategy is expected to double Thomas Cook’s net profit margin, increase 40% current ratio, and established 6 Thomas Cook China outlets in 6 biggest cities in Mainland China by 2017. However, in order to realize this strategy Thomas Cook need to invest € 3.000.000 in consecutive years to cover the expenses for the first 3 to 4 years. An aggressive marketing campaign is to be implemented in order to gain brand recognition and to gain substantial market share in Chinese tour operator industry. 4 Project IBMS6_ Business Plan Group E4 Thomas Cook Business Overview in Comparison with TUI – Thomas PARTCook’s biggest I competitor I.

    17 policy-AGENda The TUI Group perspective on the 18th parliament of the German Bundestag (2013–2017) Aktiengesellschaft 18 TUI’S political DEMANDS: 10 POLICY BULLET POINTS 1. STRENGTHEN TOURISM AS A DRIVER FOR GROWTH n Greater recognition and support for tourism to drive growth and jobs 2. TAX POLICY n No excessive taxation by imposing additional business taxes on tour operators (disproportionate interpretation of section 8 (1e) German Trade Tax Act) n Scrap air passenger tax, which does not serve its original purpose of reducing CO2 emissions but instead skews competition with other EU countries n Keep the lower VAT rate on overnight accommodation to permit continued investment in modernising and expanding hotels n Abolish uncoordinated local bed taxes 3. AVIATION POLICY n Active support for the Single European Sky (SES) to reduce CO2 emissions and coordinate aviation regulations across Europe n Suspend EU emissions trading (ETS) until an international system is in place to ensure a level playing field n No tighter bans on night flying and greater recognition for new, quieter aircraft when allocating slots 4. INFRASTRUCTURE POLICY n Development of port infrastructures for ship fuelling based on environmentally friendly liquefied natural gas (LNG) technology n More investment in tourism infrastructure following the withdrawal of EU funds n Federal responsibility for airport planning in Germany to stem the uncontrolled proliferation of small airports 5. SUSTAINABILITY AND THE ENVIRONMENT n Greater recognition for the tourism industry’s commitment to sustainability n Provision of an adequate time frame for implementing new environmental standards (e.g., reducing CO2 emissions) n More effective integration of Germany’s National Biodiversity Strategy into international contexts 6.
