| 1 | Thomson and Falcon Holidays owner TUI has revealed that the terrorist massacre in Tunisia and the Greek debt crisis would have a 20 million impact on earnings. |
| 2 | Tourists were flown home from the North African country and travel operators have cancelled holidays there, with the British Foreign Office and other governments still advising against visits. |
| 3 | The costs of the flights home plus cancellations and switching people booked on holidays to Tunisia to different destinations resulted in an impact of around 20 million on TUI. |
| 4 | It set out details in a trading update for the third quarter to the end of June. |
| 5 | TUI's joint chief executives Friedrich Joussen and Peter Long said: "This quarter was marked by the tragic events in Tunisia at the end of June. |
| 6 | "Supporting our customers, their families and our colleagues through this sad time remains our highest priority. |
| 7 | "We are very proud of the commitment and dedication our colleagues have shown throughout this unprecedented situation." |
| 8 | TUI also said that bookings to Greece in late June and the first half of July were hit by economic uncertainty - as the indebted country neared economic collapse before reaching a deal on a new bailout with creditors. |
| 9 | The company did not give an update on the future impact of the Tunisian atrocity - in a country which has in the past represented 3% of its annual tour operator programmes. |
| 10 | The figures come after rival Thomas Cook revealed a 25 million hit to earnings from events in Tunisia and Greece. |
