Thomas Cook India strengthens Karnataka footprint
Opens new outlet in Raja Rajeshwari Nagar, Bengaluru
Expands network to 13 locations in Bengaluru and 18 across Karnataka
Mumbai, September 24, 2026: Thomas Cook (India) Limited, India’s leading omnichannel travel services
company, has further strengthened its retail presence in Bengaluru with the launch of a new outlet in Raja
Rajeshwari Nagar (RR Nagar). With this addition, the company now has 13 outlets across Bengaluru and 18
across Karnataka, strengthening its retail reach in one of India’s most prominent travel markets.
Located in South-West Bengaluru, RR Nagar has developed into a well-established residential and lifestyle
destination, supported by a strong base of affluent and upper-middle-class households, technology
professionals and students. The locality also benefits from its connectivity to several established residential
and emerging growth corridors, making it a natural retail hub for customers across a wider catchment.
The new outlet will serve customers from neighbourhoods including Ideal Homes Township, BEML Layout,
BHEL Layout, Remco Layout, Gnanabharathi and Kengeri Satellite Town, with its catchment extending further
into Uttarahalli, Hosakerehalli, Nayandahalli, the Mysore Road corridor, Chandra Layout and southern parts of
Vijayanagar. Its proximity to Bengaluru’s technology and education hubs further strengthens its access to a
young, mobile and internationally oriented customer base.
The outlet will cater particularly to families and technology professionals, offering a comprehensive portfolio
spanning International and Domestic Holidays, Group Tours, Personalised Holidays, Cruises and value-
added services such as Travel Insurance. Customers can also access Thomas Cook’s AI-powered booking
platform, which enables personalised vacation planning by checking availability and making reservations in
real time.
