travel business travelIs Thomas Cook vertically or horizontally integrated?
In this way, is Tui vertically or horizontally integrated?
For example First Choice and Tui are both touroperators and they merged together, now Thomson own boththem two and Tui is frequently advertised on Thomsonbroaches but it is in a smiley face style; Co-op Travel and ThomasCook have recently merged to save costs and make moreprofit.
Also asked, is EasyJet horizontally integrated?
The advantage of horizontal integration is thatit can increase the company's market share. Another good example ofthis type of integration is when EasyJet purchasedthe airline Go from British Airways. Now EasyJet and Go bothoperate under the company name of EasyJet.
Horizontal Integration is when two industriesmerge together; it is where one business which offers a producttakes over another business who offers similar products. In thetravel industry two companies take over one another in orderto find out different ways to sell their products and services totheir customers.
