Snowsports specialist Neilson will introduce a range of festive short breaks as part of its 2016-17 season.
Four, five and six-day getaways have been unveiled in the new brochure for those wanting to hit the slopes during the Christmas and New Year period, as well its traditional seven-night packages.
Neilson, which operates 29 ski destinations across Europe, will offer five-night breaks from December 28 to January 2, and six-night trips which will begin on January 2-8 at its resorts in Andorra, Spain, Italy and the French Alp locations of Montgenevre and Serre Chevalier.
Four-night retreats in Austria, Bulgaria, France (not including Montgenevre and Serre Chevalier), and Italy (excluding resorts in Sauze D’Oulx and Sestriere) will run from January 3-7.
Customers who book their trips by August 1 will also be given the chance to bag up to £313 worth of discounts per person, with half-price lift passes available to early birds, plus group bookings of seven adults or more can take advantage of 20% off the total cost of their trip.
In addition, any group which fills a Mountain Collection chalet will be offered a discount of up to £150pp.
Richard Bowden-Doyle, Neilson chief executive, said: “Our brochures are increasingly being used as guides by our customers, so we decided to make the 2016-17 brochure more streamlined so it’s easier for people to find what they’re looking for.
“The festive short breaks are a result of our change in flying days over Christmas and New Year. We understand that it’s sometimes difficult to take a full week off, so we’re very pleased to be in a position to accommodate skiers and boarders who just want a few days in the mountains over New Year.
“Half-price lift passes speak for themselves. It’s a necessary but sometimes expensive part of the holiday, so we wanted to reduce that cost for our early-bird bookers.”
