What D-reizen does
D-reizen generates revenue primarily through commissions on transactions across multiple travel verticals: package holiday sales (its largest stream, aggregated from D-holidays and partner tour operators), cruise bookings across six cruise lines, standalone flight tickets, dedicated group travel services for 6+ travelers (priced as professional services), and add-on referrals including car rental (Sunny Cars), travel insurance, and visa services. The pricing model is transaction-based with no online booking fee, displaying comparative supplier pricing dynamically; premium segments (Club Med, Senses) are sold exclusively through in-store advisors. Customer segments are horizontally diversified across sun/beach holiday seekers, cruise enthusiasts, group travelers, young adults (18-35 via GOfun), and premium/luxury travelers, with a marketing reach of approximately 980,000 newsletter subscribers. The platform is supported by a CRM and marketing automation infrastructure, an 'Mijn D-reizen' customer portal, and a broad SEO-driven content footprint covering destinations, school holidays, and travel guides.

D-reizen competitors and assessment
Company assessmentEmerging players
- VakantiePiraten: Dutch deal aggregator specializing in last-minute travel offers, package deals, and discount codes. Comparable as a digital-native Dutch travel discovery platform competing for budget-conscious Dutch holidaymakers, though smaller scale and aggregator-only (no own tour operator or retail).
- Holidayguru: Dutch deal-focused travel platform owned by HolidayCheck Group, aggregating discounted package holidays. Comparable as a price-led Dutch OTA competing with D-reizen's last-minute and budget product lines.
- Traveldeal: Dutch OTA focused on last-minute and discount package holidays. Comparable as a digital-first price-aggressive Dutch competitor targeting the same budget-conscious traveler segment as D-reizen's Last Minute and Goedkope Vakantie lines.
Direct peers
- TUI Nederland: Largest tour operator and travel retailer in the Netherlands, operating TUI retail stores, its own airlines, hotel brands (RIU, TUI BLUE), and cruise brands. Directly comparable to D-reizen because it combines physical retail with multi-product holiday distribution, and is one of D-reizen's most important supplier-partners competing for the same Dutch consumer.
- De Jong Intra Vakanties: Versatile Dutch tour operator offering sun holidays, city breaks, bus tours, round trips, and camping — distributed via D-reizen and through its own direct channel. Comparable mid-sized Dutch operator targeting the same Dutch consumer with overlapping product categories (bus tours, camping, group travel).
- Sunweb Group: Dutch-founded OTA and tour operator offering package holidays, ski trips, and cruises across Europe. Directly comparable to D-reizen as a Netherlands-headquartered digital-first travel aggregator with its own tour-operator capacity and strong brand recognition among Dutch consumers.
- Prijsvrij Vakanties: Dutch online travel agency specializing in last-minute and discount package holidays. Directly comparable as a Dutch OTA competing for the same price-sensitive segment; notably, D-reizen was previously branded as Prijsvrij Vakanties, suggesting a shared operational lineage.
- Kras: Long-standing Dutch tour operator (founded 1923) offering package holidays, group travel, bus tours, and cruises. Comparable mid-sized Dutch operator with overlapping group-travel and packaged-holiday products targeted at the Dutch market.
- Corendon: Major Dutch-Turkish tour operator with its own Corendon Hotels & Resorts and a youth label (GOfun — distributed exclusively via D-reizen). Directly comparable as a vertically integrated Dutch tour operator/airline competing on sun holidays to Turkey, Curaçao, and Gambia.
Broad incumbents
- Booking.com: Global OTA leader headquartered in the Netherlands. Overlaps with D-reizen on accommodation, flight, and increasingly package booking for Dutch consumers, but operates at vastly greater scale and as a broad digital-only incumbent rather than a multi-channel holiday specialist.
