Commission opens in-depth probe into travel joint venture between T-Online, TUI and Neckermann

Commission opens in-depth probe into travel joint venture between T-Online, TUI and Neckermann
The European Commission has started a full investigation into a planned online travel agency between German Internet service provider T-Online, TUI and C&N (Neckermann), also German. Although only one of the parent companies has important activities currently in the market for online travel services, the venture would combine the content of the two leading German tour operators with Europe's largest Internet access provider. At this stage, this powerful and unique combination raises strong concerns that the joint venture would achieve such a strong position that it could potentially result in a reduction of choice for end consumers of travel online services.
