Several resorts in France, Austria, Italy and Switzerland have opened their lifts and slopes ahead of schedule, with the season typically starting in early December.


Specialist ski agency, Ski Solutions, said "exceptional early season snowfall had transformed the European ski landscape", promising "an outstanding start to the season".


Jet2.com is offering 10% off all winter 2023/24 ski flights until March 2024; the airline offers eight ski destinations from 10 of its 11 UK bases, including Chambery, Geneva, Grenoble, Salzburg, Innsbruck, Lyon, Turin and Barcelona, for Andorra.
