We started up back in 1965 with the aim of making foreign travel accessible to all. Instead of soggy trips to the seaside, people began jetting off to the Continent for a dose of sun.

Fast forward 40 years and we’re still going strong. We’ve got more staff based around the world than any other travel company, and a huge collection of holidays to choose from. So whether you’re after a cruise or a 5-star hotel, we’ll help you find a break that’s right for you.

We make it easier for you to get away

We know everybody likes to do things differently. So as well as 650 stores around the country, we’ve got the UK’s largest travel website, too. Log on and you’ll find over 2,000 hotel and destination videos, plus thousands of customer reviews, podcasts and images to help you plan your trip. And lots of our hotels are on Google Earth – so you can check them out from your sofa.

When you’ve found something that takes your fancy, just pay us a visit on the high street, click on thomson.co.uk or give us a call to book your holiday. We fly from 23 UK airports – so you can jet off from one that’s nearby. What’s more, you can now tailor-make your stay, with the option of 9, 10, 11 and 12-night holidays, as well as the traditional 7 and 14.



Start your holiday sooner with My Thomson

Once you’ve booked your holiday, you can log on to My Thomson. This is where you’ll find all the information you need to plan your escape. There’s a countdown clock, lots of information about where you’re going, flight details and the weather forecast for your holiday.

Jet off in style with Thomson Airways

Thomson Airways was set up in 1962 (formally Britannia) and has grown to become the UK’s largest charter airline. We’re based at Luton Airport, have a fleet of 77 planes and fly to more than 80 destinations around the world. We recently won awards for being the most punctual and most environmental airline.

We’ve always been at the forefront of aviation, and will be the first airline in the UK to roll out the new, fuel-efficient Boeing 787 Dreamliner.

Service levels to suit you

We know one size doesn’t fit all. That’s why we’ve given each of our hotels a particular kind of service. Take our on-demand service, for example. It gives you things like a personalised ticket wallet-come-guide book and access to our 24/7 Holidayline throughout your stay.
