Coral Travel Group

What Coral Travel Group does

Coral Travel Group is a privately held Turkish tourism conglomerate founded in 1992 and headquartered in Istanbul, with its main operational base in Antalya. The group operates 37 wholly-owned entities across 21 countries and approximately 90 destinations, employing more than 6,000 people and serving roughly 4 million tourists annually (with a stated 2026 target of 4.23 million). It is controlled by Coral Holding Anonim Şirketi (formerly Oti Holding A.Ş.), with founder Ayhan Bektaş serving as Chairman.

The group's product portfolio spans the full tourism value chain. Its tour-operator brand Coral Travel sells package tours and charter airline tickets across 16 European countries; ODEON Tours delivers destination services (transfers, guides, MICE) in 8 countries including Turkey, Egypt, Thailand, the UAE, Spain, Tunisia, Greece and Vietnam; and Odeonbeds operates a B2B bed bank providing XML/API access to 500,000+ hotels, including 8,000 directly contracted properties. Coral Group Hotels owns 12 properties under three brands (Seven Seas Resorts & Hotels, Marvida Hotels and Xanadu Resort High Class) in Turkey, Egypt and Greece. Adjacent lines include Odeon Security (hotel and event security), Odeon Technology (in-house software, automation and the recently built COP31 Digital Reservation Platform), and charter aviation supporting tour delivery.

Revenue is generated through transaction-based package tour sales, hotel room revenue, marketplace commissions on Odeonbeds bookings, security fees, charter flight operations and managed technology services. The group sells directly through 50 Coral Shop offices in 25 Turkish cities, online portals (coraltravel.com, coraltatil.com), a centralized call center, and indirectly via travel-agency and tour-operator partners. ODEON Turizm reported $1.6B in service exports in 2025 (up from $1.2B in 2024), maintaining its #1 rank in Turkey's travel-services export category for a fourth consecutive year. The group is currently preparing an IPO of ODEON Turizm via Turkey's Capital Markets Board and has secured the official accommodation partnership for COP31 in Antalya in November 2026.
