eSky Group owns the leading travel platform in Central and Eastern Europe, operating globally in more than 50 countries on five continents under the eSky, eDestinos and Thomas Cook brands. The Group is a key player in the OTA (Online Travel Agency) segment in the South American markets.
Today, eSky offers a diverse range of travel products, including flights, accommodation, city breaks and holiday packages, complemented with ancillary products such as insurances, car rentals, airport transfers, sporting, musical and other event tickets and numerous other attractions.
In 2023, the company achieved an EBITDA of more than EUR 18.7 million and generated EUR 801 million in sales revenue, serving its 3.3 million customers worldwide. In 2023, eSky Group was recognised by Forbes Poland as the most valuable Polish e-commerce company in the travel industry.
As of September 2024, Thomas Cook, the oldest travel brand in the world, is part of eSky Group. Signing an acquisition agreement with Fosun Tourism Group is expected to enable the Polish company to become one of the leading dynamic packages providers in Europe. Following the acquisition, the brands have placed a strong emphasis on developing the product area: Thomas Cook benefits from eSky's extensive flight inventory consisting of more than 500 airlines, while the travel platform with Polish roots has access to Thomas Cook's 180+ years of heritage and know-how in packaged holidays. This has opened the door for eSky Group to other markets from the Western European region, and in the future will contribute to the significant development of the City Break and Holidays package product.
In addition, eSky Group is the only Polish company that holds a UK ATOL licence, allowing it to sell travel products in the UK, including Flight+Hotel packages. The company is a long-standing member of the International Air Transport Association (IATA) Agents Group.
In May 2022, eSky Group and MCI Capital, one of the largest private equity funds, finalised an investment process worth EUR 33.5 million for a 55% stake in the company. MCI Capital's investment in eSky Group paves the way for the company to make acquisitions in order to scale its operations and penetrate existing markets via the possibility of EUR 21.4 million recapitalisation.
eSky Group's headquarters is located in Katowice, Poland. In Latin America, the company operates under the eDestinos brand.
