The company has recorded a 15 per cent increase in UK bookings and it found that the French ski resort of Morzine was the top destination for British skiers. The resort enjoyed an 18 per cent increase in bookings from the UK this season, while its neighbour, Avoriaz, experienced a 50 per cent growth from last year. The company's research also demonstrated that top range products and categories such as “Excellence” and “Premium” increased in popularity .
“It has been a very productive year for Skiset and we are thrilled with both the figures from the UK and the United States," said Skiset's managing director Philippe Koiransky. "The increase in demand for the highest calibre skis demonstrates that many frequent and advanced skiers are now choosing to rent ski hire equipment rather than pay costly excess baggage fees on flights. Morzine and Avoriaz’s increased popularity is understandable as both resorts offer excellent value for money and have great links with Geneva, making them easily accessible from the UK.”
Visitors going skiing this Easter can visit www.skiset.co.uk for up to 40 per cent off on all online bookings.
