Ski holiday experts Inghams Ski has reported a surge in holiday bookings.
Inghams Ski said its strongest areas of uplift in online sales have been for 2025 departures, increasing by 33% week on week, with January 2025 proving the most popular month for travel.
Destination-wise, France and Austria have had the most bookings, with Austria seeing a 32% increase compared to last week, and as the snow continues to fall, Inghams Ski predicts the booking momentum to continue.
To reassure those who are still tentative to book, Inghams Ski has improved its snow guarantee for the season ahead, which now covers customers if fewer than 25% of runs are open in the resort they’re staying in.
This was previously 10%. If ski runs can’t open due to lack of snow, Inghams Ski will organise transport to get customers to and from a resort that has better skiing conditions for any affected days covered by their lift pass.
John Mansell, Managing Director of Inghams Ski comments:
“A spike in bookings like these are what you expect to see when people are confident in great snow conditions for the start of the season.
“We are seeing those who have been tentative to book a ski holiday now committing, and it’s clear everyone is feeling the excitement for the season ahead.
“As strong booking numbers continue into this week, we can’t wait for the season to start, and with our revised snow guarantee, our customers can be as confident as we are in our high-altitude resorts with reliable snow records.”
