Insurance
Your Protection
It is essential that you have adequate insurance cover for your
winter sports activities, the costs in the Alps can be huge should
you injure yourself, indeed we require you be covered before
you arrive. If you choose not to take out our insurance, you
must provide evidence that you have cover by providing us with
a photocopy of your own policy. Be sure that your own policy
is valid for the dates you are with us and it includes skiing.
We are now very pleased to offer you very competitive rates for
travel insurance on your winter sports holiday, in fact we believe
that it will be difficult to beat our prices and our level of
cover. Our insurance is arranged through the Travel Trust Association
and due to the potential high costs we only offer the “Platinum” cover
which is the highest category and includes up to £10 Million
for medical expenses. The single trip policies are just for one
holiday, the multi trip policies insure you for other ski holidays
(as long as you don’t exceed 17 days skiing) and your other
annual holidays.
Our winter sports policies covers skiing ( inc off-piste skiing but only in areas designated safe by resort management), snowboarding, snow sledging not tobogganing but the policy does not include any other activities not listed above.

Other Healthcare Information
We strongly advise you to obtain a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC)
(this replaced the E111). This is NOT a substitute for travel insurance
but does entitle you to reduced (or sometimes free) healthcare within the
European Economic Area. To obtain one please visit www.dh.gov.uk/travellers.
Protecting your Money
Unlike many other ski companies / individuals we fully comply to all
EU regulations, as such the money you pay us is fully protected as it is
paid directly into a trust account. The money is only released to us following
completion of your holiday.
We are full members of the Travel Trust Association (number U2484) and
we have to adhere to a strict code of conduct including the running of
the trust account. For further information please click on the TTA logo
or go to www.traveltrust.co.uk
