Tiu Passengers Advise to Bring their Own Food and Drink On Board

Due to staff shortages at Tui’s catering supplier, many passengers will have to bring their own food and drink on board.

Tui Airways announced on Friday night that short- and mid-haul flights would be affected “in the coming days.”

According to Tui UK and Ireland, “We can confirm that unfortunately due to staff shortages with our catering supplier, there may be limited food and drinks services available on board.”

“Customers may therefore want to bring their own food and soft drinks onboard – no alcohol permitted. Any soft drinks over 100ml will need to be purchased after you have passed through security.”

Long-haul flights to Aruba, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Mexico, Orlando, and St Lucia are not affected. Tui has promised that food service on these flights will continue as usual.

The operator added, “Please be assured we are continuously monitoring the situation and working closely with our suppliers to limit the impact to the onboard service for our customers. We are directly contacting all customers impacted. We’re very sorry for any inconvenience caused.”
