A travel expert with extensive experience highlighted a top destination ideal for those in search of romance. Hannah Sterling, who has worked for 31 years at TUI’s Penarth branch, is skilled at matching life events with the perfect travel spots. She highly recommends Thailand for clients undergoing relationship changes, citing its universal appeal and positive impact on individuals dealing with such transitions.
According to recent findings from TUI, a significant portion of Brits (64%) are inclined to book a holiday to mark important life milestones, with relationship transformations often serving as a significant catalyst. Notably, engagements and weddings were cited as the most common occasions prompting holiday bookings (19%), while a surprising 8% expressed interest in celebrating newfound independence with a ‘divorce-moon.’
Hannah further explains that Thailand caters to both groups in distinct ways, providing an ideal setting for solo travelers looking to venture out and couples seeking to reignite their connection. TUI has observed a notable increase in passenger numbers to Thailand, with a surge of over 30% anticipated for the upcoming winter season, solidifying its position as one of the travel giant’s most sought-after long-haul destinations in 2025, with plans for expanded capacity in 2026.
Reflecting on Thailand’s allure, Hannah emphasizes its transformative effect on slowing down the pace of life and fostering genuine connections. The serene environment prompts individuals to engage in meaningful interactions, offering a break from the daily hustle and bustle. Whether it’s couples rediscovering intimacy or individuals undergoing personal growth post-breakup, Thailand’s blend of comfort and adventure provides the perfect backdrop for self-discovery and reconnection.
