TUI Travel: "We are closely monitoring events in Egypt and Tunisia and the safety of our customers is our primary consideration. Early indications are that customers are choosing to rebook to alternative destinations and we are taking action to remix our programmes in line with customer demand. The progress in the first quarter represents an encouraging start to 2011 and the forward booking position is good. We remain cautious, however, given the current economic and geopolitical uncertainty," Peter Long, CEO. Source: TUI Travel, 03-Feb-2011.
