All our winter ski packages now include Eurotunnel with FREE FlexiPlus upgrade giving you not only the complete flexibility to travel on the next available departure (whenever you turn-up) but also dedicated Check-In lane, priority boarding and use of the dedicated lounge facilities with complimentary facilities (cars below 1.85m high only). Some supplements for peak dates apply. See details here.  

For those who prefer a leisurely ferry crossing we can offer great reductions and no peak date supplements with SeaFrance and P&O on Dover-Calais. Please enquire for details.

For those travelling from Scotland or the North of England, we can book P&O Hull-Zeebrugge/Rotterdam. Save miles in the UK and arrive first thing in the morning fresh and ready for your journey in either Zeebrugge or Rotterdam. Zeebrugge to the Alps is roughly the same distance as Calais whilst Rotterdam adds about 70 miles.

Brittany Ferries and its overnight crossing from Portsmouth to Caen is another great alternative allowing you to arrive first thing in the morning in France fresh and ready for your journey. The drive is then roughly the same distance as Calais.

For those who prefer to fly our advice is to book as early as possible, especially for busy dates such as Christmas, New Year, February half-term and Easter.

For February half-term British Airways' lowest fares for Gatwick/Heathrow to Geneva are about £140 at the moment whilst charters from Gatwick to Geneva are already about £270 inclusive of all taxes and charges. For the likes of Easyjet (prices not released yet) it is essential to book within hours of the fares being released in order to get a good deal - the next day is often too late already. Easyjet's winter fares probably won't be available until July-August but it's best to check with the airline.

As booking direct with the respective airlines will always save you money on the cost of flights included in holiday packages we let you organise this independently.

We can book competitive car hire or great value private transfers from Geneva and other airports. Click here for details.

Save time and money by pre-booking your extras with Peak Retreats. We have considerable experience in arranging:

  Ski/snowboard & boot Hire, Ski School and Lift Passes

  Car Hire

  Transfers from Airport (or train station) to Resort [Single or return]

  Competitive Travel Insurance
