A surprising number of holidays still remain for half term and Valentine’s Day, so grab one as quick as you can. Otherwise late February onwards is always a lovely time for a ski holiday – with the chance of warmer weather and, hopefully, some lunches sitting on the terrace of a mountain restaurant.

Don’t forget to reserve your airport parking at least 24 hours before you go – especially important during peak holiday periods. If you’re flying from Gatwick, Cophall Parking has some offers just for Welove2ski viewers.

Due to readers’ requests, we now also have our ski holiday prices in euros (with the exchange rate correct at the time of writing), although you should contact tour operators direct for a quote that doesn’t include travel from the UK.

Half Term
