Incredible Conditions in the Alps

Your author: Powder Monkey December 21st, 2011 - Posted by: Powder Monkey

Incredible Conditions in the Alps

In case the media haven’t been as quick to report on the recent deluge of snow in the Alps as they were to shout about the lack of it a month ago, we thought you’d like to know what incredible amount of snow has fallen over the last 3 weeks.

Winter began in earnest on 1st December with the first big snowfall of the season and since then it’s just kept coming. At the weekend alone up to 2 metres of new snow fell in resorts across France and Switzerland. With the snowline well below 1000m even lower altitude resorts, which can be a gamble so early in the season, are in great shape.

The remarkable amount of fresh powder means that ski resorts local to Chambery and Sion airports are now well and truly set up for the season and skiers holidaying in the next couple of weeks are likely to enjoy the best snow conditions they have ever experienced in the European Alps!

And you could be among them. Snowjet have flight availability in the next fortnight including flexible dates over the holiday period.

Don’t miss out – book your seat today.

Mid December Snow Conditions in the Alps

Your author: Powder Monkey December 14th, 2011 - Posted by: Powder Monkey

It looks like our obsession with the snow forecast is paying dividends – it’s snowing again in the Alps and the white stuff is due to keep coming for the next 4 days.  Up to 60 cms of snow is expected in our favourite ski resorts including Val d’isere, Tignes, Val Thorens, Les Arcs and Courchevel in France and Verbier, Zermatt, Crans Montana and Saas Fee in Switzerland.  And that’s on top of the huge dump that fell last week.

Snowjet passengers arriving on our first flights to Chambery airport in the French Alps and Sion airport in the Swiss Alps this weekend are going to enjoy some fantastic snow conditions.  And there’s still time to join them and make yours the first tracks in the fresh snow that’s been falling.  So check out the snow forecast in your favourite resort and get booking yourself a sneaky last minute ski holiday.

Snowjet still have flights departing this weekend (17th & 18th December) available at great rates including Stansted to Chambery from £64.99 one way and Stansted to Sion from £99.99 one way.

September Snow

Your author: Powder Monkey September 21st, 2011 - Posted by: Powder Monkey



The weather in the Alps changed dramatically over the weekend with plummeting temperatures and snow above many of our favourite Swiss and French resorts. Snow even fell down to resort level in a number of places, which is remarkable for the time of year.

This was the wintry backdrop to Verbier on Monday 19th September. (Picture courtesy of PerformanceVerbier.com)

Of course it’s very early days, but we’re hoping this means a fantastic snow year in the making.
