You have been redirected from our Snowline website. All of our chalets now appear under our VIP SKI banner: same chalets, same company, same outstanding value and service. More choice.

Dependable

By chartering our own aircraft directly from bmi and Flybe, we are able to offer you a reliable full frills service from Gatwick, Manchester or Bristol. We can’t pretend that the fun of the holiday begins at the airport (particularly if you are travelling with young children) but we can try and get you to your chalet with the minimum of fuss.

Flights

Our flight programme for the 10/11 season will be confirmed later this summer.

 We will update the details here as soon as they are available.

All VIP holidays include return flights except on Dec 5, Dec 12 and Apr 17. Flights from Manchester or Bristol are subject to a supplement.

Non-VIP Flights

Our conveniently-timed flights sell out fast on busy dates, and we may sometimes purchase seats and transfers with other operators to satisfy demand. There is usually a supplement payable for these flights and we will always advise you prior to booking if this is the case. In addition to our main flights from Gatwick, Manchester and Bristol, we can sometimes offer other regional departures for a supplementary charge. This is always subject to availability and naturally we have no control over the timings or levels of service provided by any alternative carriers

Flight only sales for independent travellers

We charter our own aircraft and so from time to time we have seats which can be sold as 'flight only'. Travelling on a Sunday also means that you benefit from quieter airports. All round it's a much more pleasant experience than most independent traveller options. If you are interested in buying a seat on one of our flights please email James Brine at james.brine@vip-chalets.com or alternatively call us on 0844 557 3119.

Travel details and tickets

We will send you your travel documents and essential pre-departure information via email approximately 2 weeks prior to departure.

Car hire

Car hire at Geneva airport is split into two sectors, Swiss and French. Car hire companies operate in both sectors of the airport. The Swiss sector is the international sector but it is possible to cross over to the French sector if you have hired a car there. Please make sure you check when you hire your car whereabouts in the airport you are going to collect it.

Flights at sensible times

Brinnngggg brinnnggg. Not a nice sound in the middle of the night. We have comfortable departure times so that you shouldn’t have to set your alarm to go off the day before. Drop your car with our valet service and you can leave home even later.

Less waiting, less fuss

We fly on a Sunday morning to avoid the crowds at the airport and the cars on the road. We operate smaller aircraft that are quicker to load and unload. We transfer you directly to your resort without waiting for other flights. All this helps.
