- Good news for Ski Travellers -
Updated Dec 2nd
Demand is strong for this Winter as many thousands skiers and boarders prepare for an emotional return to the slopes. And the great news is that the snow has started to fall in abundance!
There’s no real change to the requirements for travel to France. You still need to be fully vaccinated to travel (so no change there) and as of December 1st you will also need a negative PCR test (within 24hrs) to travel. See our travel information page.
And don't forget, that if things change dramatically and we can't operate your holiday for Covid Reasons - our Covid Protection Policy will enable you to reschedule your trip.
As normal, you will need to be fully vaccinated to travel (so no change there) and this will give you a health pass (your NHS vaccination certificates) for arrival in France and to be able to visit our chalets/hotels, restaurants etc. Under 12’s don't need a pass and 12-18’s need proof of vaccination or a negative test that is within 24hrs. Don't forget that if your child has had Covid, they can get a health pass without having the jabs. See our travel check list.
And don't forget, that if things change dramatically and we can't operate your holiday for Covid Reasons - our Covid Protection Policy will enable you to reschedule your trip.
