easyJet has put on sale two million seats to its most popular ski routes across Europe this winter.
As heavy snowfalls are expected throughout the coming weeks, the airline is launching its first full ski flying programme in over two years.
easyJet’s ski flying programme in Europe is also increasing by 30% this winter compared to 2022.
The airline claims to be the number one carrier between the UK and France, as well as the largest operator serving the main Alps airports including Lyon, Grenoble, Geneva, Milan and Turin.
In Lyon, for example, the seat offer is 110% compared to 2019. This combined with Grenoble, which is served by easyJet only in winter, ensures a strong contribution to the Rhône-Alpes economy.
The company serves resorts throughout the region: Nice and Marseille to the Southern Alps, Toulouse to the Pyrenees and Andorra, Basel-Mulhouse to the Vosges.
These airports offer a shuttle service to ski resorts. A sports equipment option is also available on easyJet’s website and mobile app from €42 including skis and ski boots, as well as snowboards.
Great value fares are still to be had on several of our domestic cross-country routes for the February holidays, departing on a weekend day – prices as of 16 January:
- Nantes – Lyon from €51 (Sunday 19 February)
- Lille – Toulouse from €72 (Sunday 19 February)
- Bordeaux – Lyon from €49 (Sunday 12 February)
- Rennes – Lyon from €79 (Sunday 12 February)
Bertrand Godinot, Country Director of easyJet in France, said:
“This winter marks the return of ski traffic with 2 million seats available to all our ski destinations.
“Capacity is comparable to 2019 and ski demand this winter is encouraging, promising good prospects for the key winter destinations in our network.
“By making France its second ski destination after Switzerland, we are contributing to the winter sports tourism economy, which is essential for many French territories.
“This economic contribution goes hand in hand with a long-standing and constant effort to reduce our carbon intensity.”
