Due to a lack of snow in Lapland, TUI has been forced to cancel a number of holidays scheduled for today and tomorrow. Specifically, the Kuusamo region has been impacted by heavy rainfall that washed away the snow at some of the resorts, leading to the need for cancellations. TUI has communicated with affected guests, expressing regret for the situation and offering options for rebooking without additional cost, a discount on another holiday, or full refunds. Not all Lapland holidays have been affected by the cancellations, with some resorts still having the necessary snow for a magical experience. Popular destinations such as Rovaniemi, known as Santa’s Village, remain unaffected by the weather conditions.
While some Lapland holidays have been cancelled due to the lack of snow in Kuusamo, other resorts in Lapland are still able to provide visitors with a winter wonderland experience. For guests staying at hotels in central Rovaniemi, where there is currently no snow directly at the hotel, TUI reassures that this will not affect planned activities or excursions. The winter conditions in the region will still allow guests to fully enjoy their Lapland adventure. While TUI has apologized for the inconvenience caused by the cancellations, they are committed to providing alternative options for affected guests to ensure that they can still enjoy a memorable holiday experience. Sun Travel has reached out to TUI for further comment on the situation.
