Greater Flight Flexibility for Skiers during the Festive Season

Nov. 3, 2011 - PRLog -- The ski flight operator, who specialises in flights to Chambery in the French Alps and to Sion in the Swiss Alps, is offering departures on a variety of days of the week, including some Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays over Christmas and New Year, so skiers can enjoy greater flexibility with their holiday dates.  See http://www.snowjet.co.uk/timetable.asp for full details.

This break with the normal weekend only schedule is due to the fact that Christmas Day and New Year’s Day fall on Sundays this winter.   Independent accommodation providers have consequently suspended their standard Saturday to Saturday or Sunday to Sunday holidays and are offering an eclectic array of possible dates and break lengths. So Snowjet has adjusted their flight schedule accordingly.

Snowjet flights during the festive season are competitively priced too, with Chambery  at under £125 return per person (based on flying from London Stansted on 18th  Dec and returning on Monday 26th Dec)  and Sion at under £170 return per person (based on flying from London Stansted on 18th Dec and returning on Monday 26th Dec).  That might be a little more than with Easy Jet, but the great thing about Snowjet flights is that they fly you closer to the slopes so you’ll save both time and money on your transfer.
Other advantages of flying Snowjet include:

-   A relaxed start and end to your ski holiday - Snowjet flights depart at sensible times, plus you can choose your seat at check-in.

-   Greater comfort onboard - Snowjet aircraft have more leg room (minimum 31 inch seat pitch) so you arrive ski-ready.

-   A straightforward baggage policy designed for skiers – Snowjet’s unique pricing includes a great value boot bag charge of just £4 one way.

-   A brand new inflight magazine for skiers - we've teamed up with InTheSnow to create a bespoke magazine for Snowjet passengers to get you in the skiing mood.

The greater flexibility on offer, coupled with the good early snow experienced in the Alps in the past few winters make the festive season a great choice for a ski holiday.  And there’s still time to book your trip and enjoy a truly white Christmas. However, Snowjet prices will rise as seats sell, so skiers are advised to book early for the lowest fares.
