Jon Pearce of ski-direct.co.uk says: “We think recent reports of a
possible rise in prices are irresponsible in an already sensitive
market. No-one is pretending that the low rate of the pound to the euro
is helping matters, but we are seeing that customers still want to have
a special ski holiday and are putting a lot of effort into saving money
wherever they can.”
In response to the current economic climate, Ski-Direct report that they
have been creating new ski package holidays that offer significant savings,
much earlier in the year than usual. Therefore, there are more bargains
available to consumers than compared to this time last year.
Jon continues: “Like many operators, we are running at a small margin so
we can pass on the most attractive deals to our customers and we are putting
together a range of package ski holiday deals that really do offer real
savings.”
“We work very hard with our partners to offer the widest range of ski
holiday deals possible – across Europe and North America, thus giving our
customers great choice of resort, accommodation and facilities.”
Many people choose to travel in large groups, saving money by booking
into chalets and taking advantages of the offers from the ski resorts –
including free lift passes for children.
Ski-Direct expects more ski resorts across Europe and North America to
make announcements about free ski passes and similar deals throughout the
summer.
So, the strong message from
www.ski-direct.co.uk , is – look for the creatively packaged deals put
together by experts who know about the real costs of taking a ski holiday.
Booking early is the best way to get the best deals. Deposits are low,
minimizing the risk of maximizing your budget, Ski-Direct aims to give its
customers value for money, as well as great service.
