Information & Expert Advice
Type of Holiday – The biggest choice of holidays is available if you select the “Air Holiday” option Do not choose Road or Rail if you want to go to N. America!
Departure Date – most ski holidays depart on Saturday or Sunday. Most companies go to France, Austria, Switzerland, Bulgaria, US and Canada on Saturdays and Andorra, Italy, Norway on Sundays
Departing From – not all destinations are served from all airports, especially the smaller regional airports. Try Gatwick, Birmingham or Manchester if you cannot find the resort you want from your local airport.
Country/Region – fewer holidays are offered to the minor countries such as Sweden, Bulgaria or Spain. The biggest selection is to France followed by Austria and Italy. 'Operators Choice' are holidays where either the resort or choice of property is left to the operator.
Resort – If you choose the 'Any' option you will most likely get results but you may get too many. You will then need to narrow your search by choosing a specific resort. The well known resorts such as Meribel in France or St Anton in Austria have many more holidays on offer than the minor resorts.
Duration – most holidays to Europe are for 7 nights and 7,10,11
or 14 nights to North America.
Number of Adults – start by trying just 2 passengers to see if
the resort and property you want is featured. If it is but does not
then show for a larger number - call us so we can make a further check.
Board – try the '“Any Board Basis' option first. There are more
Self Catering, Catered Chalet and Half Board holidays than the other types so choosing either of these is more likely to produce results.
SEARCH RESULTS – when you do get a result you can then, depending on your priority, sort the holidays listed by price, resort or departure date.
