TUI Travel stated that it is in early discussions with Lufthansa and Thomas Cook in relation to a potential merger of Condor, Germanwings and TUIfly Germany. The development was also confirmed by Thomas Cook.
However, no commercial terms have been agreed. There is no certainty that any transaction will result and a further announcement will be made if and when appropriate, according to TUI.

According to media reports, Thomas Cook sources said it had still not ruled out the original deal with Air Berlin but analysts said with the new statement it looked like such a deal had been all-but abandoned.
