Sadly, following the massive rise in the value of their currency, there isn’t a bargain Swiss holiday here this week. But back in the eurozone we have some great offers. Uncertainty over snow cover means there’s even some availability over half-term. With a big dump forecast for this weekend, now is a good time to book.

Here are some of the latest ski deals available. For more offers, check out the websites of operators such as Crystal Ski, Inghams, Mark Warner, Neilson, and Ski World. Consult specialist travel agencies, too – such as Sno, Snowfinders, Momentum Ski and Snow-Wise.
