Spies is Denmark's largest and longest-established charter tour operator, founded in 1956. It sells packaged holidays combining flights and hotels to leisure destinations across Europe and beyond. Spies operates under the Nordic Leisure Travel Group umbrella alongside Ving (Norway and Sweden) and Tjäreborg (Finland). The "Spies (Expedia)" channel designation reflects a distribution arrangement in which Spies leverages Expedia Group's technology or inventory pipeline to serve its Scandinavian customer base.
Spies primarily serves Danish leisure travellers seeking sun-and-beach package holidays, city breaks, and long-haul packages. For hoteliers, connection through this channel reaches a high-volume Scandinavian tour-operator market that books in bulk and values reliable contract-based allocations. Hotels typically connect via contracted allotments or dynamic connectivity routed through Expedia's platform, making it accessible to properties already integrated with Expedia Group.
The channel is strongly oriented toward leisure resort and beach destinations popular with Scandinavian travellers — the Canary Islands, Mediterranean, Thailand, and similar warm-weather markets. Properties in those destinations that seek volume from the Danish market will find Spies a relevant distribution partner.
