Just as the German tour operators burned Las Palmas as a destination, TUI develops the same strategy after controlling the Canary Islands and, especially, the south of Gran Canaria. For some time now, TUI has been growing in countries like Senegal or Cape Verde to squeeze prices on hoteliers in the south of Gran Canaria. While in Playa del Inglés, Maspalomas and Mogán they require an 8,5 passing grade, which is done at the expense of employees' salaries, in Cape Verde they put bloody chicken in the food.
But TUI karma has its limits: more than 500 British tourists took legal action after suffering gastric illnesses while staying in luxury TUI hotels in Cape Verde over the summer.
Tourists, including a man who was so sick he fell unconscious on the flight home and a couple who have still not recovered after their vacation nearly two months later, told how they were served raw food and left in unsafe conditions. miserable
Tourists reported being served "bloody chicken" and food covered in flies, as well as a "strong sulfur smell" at one hotel, causing some to cut short their "dream" vacation. Staying in seven hotels in Cape Verde, off the west coast of Africa, more than 530 holidaymakers who traveled there between May and October have instructed specialist lawyers to investigate after their dream trip turned into a 'holiday'. from hell'.
