New ski flights from Gatwick to Geneva with Snowjet
November 20th, 2009
Ski flight specialist Snowjet is adding Geneva to its winter destinations served from Gatwick.
Flights will run on Saturdays between December 19 and April 10 with fares starting at £29 one-way including taxes and 20kg baggage allowance. Ski-carriage is £14.99 one way.
The weekly Geneva service will complement existing flights to Chambery and Sion.
Company managing director David Lacy said: “Our Chambery flights provide easy access to some of France’s top ski resorts including Meribel, Val d’Isere and Courchevel, while our Sion flights offer the fastest route to some of Switzerland’s best resorts including Verbier, Saas Fee and Crans Montana.
“Our passengers were telling us they’d appreciate flights to access other resorts including Chamonix, Morzine and Avoriaz, so we’ve introduced the Geneva service to meet this demand.”
This is great news, especially as availability for peak dates on other airlines is rapidly filling up! Call Ski Independence today on 0131 243 8097 to book your Gatwick - Geneva Snowjet flights.
