After 737 MAX grounding: TUI secures additional flight capacity to guarantee customers' holidays / Update on guidance of underlying EBITA1 rebased for FY19

Hanover, 29 March 2019. Following the grounding of the 737 MAX aircraft, TUI has made arrangements in order to guarantee customers' holidays. The Group is utilising spare aircraft of its fleet, extending expiring leases for aircraft that were supposed to be replaced by 737 MAX aircraft, as well as leasing in additional aircraft. TUI's fleet, which comprises around 150 aircraft, currently includes 15 grounded 737 MAX for the UK, Belgium, the Netherlands and Sweden.A further eight 737 MAX are scheduled for delivery by the end of May 2019.

Considerable uncertainty around when the 737 MAX will return to service

No dates have yet been announced for modifications of the existing aircraft model by the manufacturer, neither for approval of such modifications by the FederalAviationAdministration (FAA) and the EuropeanAviation SafetyAgency (EASA). Therefore, TUI has taken precautions along with other airlines, covering the time until mid-July, in order to be prepared for the Easter-, Whitsun- and start of the summer holiday season and to secure holidays for its customers and their families.

Update on guidance for underlying EBITA1 rebased

Assuming 737 MAX flight resumption latest by mid-July, the Group currently expects to see a one-off impact on underlying EBITA 1 rebased of approx. EUR 200m in connection with the 737 MAX grounding. This impact is especially attributable to costs related to the replacement of aircraft, higher fuel costs, other disruption costs, and the anticipated impact on trading.As a result of this oneoff impact, the Executive Board of TUIAG has decided today to update the guidance and now expects an underlying EBITA 1 rebased for FY19 of approx. minus 17% (previously 'broadly flat') compared with FY18 of EUR 1,177m2 .

Should it not become clear within the coming weeks that flying the 737 MAX will resume by mid-July, TUIwill need to extend the abovementioned measures until the end of the summer season. The current assumption for this additional one-off impact until 30 September 2019 is up to EUR 100m. For this scenario the Executive Board of TUIAG has also decided today to update the guidance for the underlying EBITA 1 rebased for FY19 to up to minus 26% compared with FY18 of EUR 1,177m2 .

TUI Group's management is holding a conference call on 29 March 2019, at 02:00pmGMT (03:00pmCET) to give more insight on the ad-hoc announcement.

The dial in details for the call will follow in shortly.
