Jet2 has put its ski holiday programme for the winter 2024/25 season on sale earlier than ever due to huge demand. Skiers and snowboarders from the South West have the chance to bag themselves ski trips in the French, Austrian and Swiss Alps super early as Jet2 starts sales from Bristol Airport earlier than ever before.
The airline is serving three popular ski destinations flying from Bristol - Chambery, Geneva and Innsbruck. The early release of the ski programme, Jet2 says, comes in direct response to strong demand from customers wanting to book ahead and it means those with a passion for snow sports can "unlock the slopes well in advance and lock-in great-price ski flights for next winter".
Flights are running weekly to these three key ski destinations, starting from mid-December 2024, to March 31, 2025. What's more there are weekend flight times, which the airport says "are perfectly suited for skiing and snowboarding breaks".
