Rendering of renovated Tallink City hotel
- In June 2021, two new Burger King restaurants are planned to be opened in Latvia. Ongoing preparations for opening 5 more Burger King restaurants in 2021
- Completion of renovation and planned reopening of Tallink City Hotel in June 2021
- Progress regarding vaccinations in Group's main markets in Estonia and Finland provides a positive outlook for traffic recovery between countries
Due to the ongoing Covid-19 situation the earnings outlook is uncertain and continues to be largely subject to external factors such as the progress of vaccinations, states' decisions regarding the timing of lifting of the travel restrictions, allowing passenger traffic as well as the duration of the recovery period.
Management expects the passenger traffic between Estonia and Finland to recover rapidly after the restrictions have been lifted.
