Touchdown on the Slopes by Chopper!

Sunday, 11 Jan, 2008 0

Victoria Beckham, Sarah Ferguson and Kate Moss may look the picture of winter chic in the snow, but now with ‘Ultimate Luxury’ transfers from SkiHoppa, everyone can make a glamorous entrance onto the ski slopes – by helicopter.

Skihoppa is offering holidaymakers the chance to arrive at their resort in comfort and style. The SkiHoppa ‘Ultimate Luxury’ helicopter routes currently offer flights from gateway airports including Geneva, Lyon, Grenoble Chambery and Annecy to top resorts French resorts like Courcheval and Val d’Isere. Helicopter transfers from Geneva also serve Swiss resorts like Zermatt and Verbier.

SkiHoppa operates with flight partners that use only the latest versions of helicopters for Alpine transfers, travelling up to a top speed of 222km per hour. Each helicopter comfortably seats up to 5 people per flight, in addition to their luggage and skis, making them a surprisingly affordable and easy transfer option for families!

But for those feeling a little less flush, SkiHoppa can still get travellers to their resorts in the traditional overland manner, offering reliable door-to-door transfers from over 24 ski airport gateways. Winter 2007/08 sees the launch of 24/7 shuttles from Geneva airport to the major ski resorts, including Chamonix Valley, as well as a full meet and greet service at Geneva airport. Every SkiHoppa shuttle vehicle is winter-enabled, with English-speaking winter driving specialists to ensure a quick, safe, hassle-free transfer from airport to the slopes. Shuttle prices start from only £11 one way, £19 return.
