From dinners in mountain-top restaurants to chilled evenings cuddled up in cosy chalets, nothing says romance quite like a ski or snowboarding trip. And here at Jet2, we’ve got your flights covered, with great-value fares to mountain gateways like Geneva, Chambery and Grenoble. So, if you’re wondering which holiday hotspots might score you some brownie points, we’ve got just the list...
Kitzbühel, Austria
Fly into Salzburg Airport
When it comes to charming resorts, it doesn’t get much quainter than Kitzbühel. The medieval town centre is primed for snowy strolls, hand in hand, and you can even opt for a horse-drawn sleigh ride. On the slopes it gets even better, with world-class pistes in the heart of the KitzSki area. There’s 233km to explore here, which means plenty of variety, no matter your ability. After a day on the mountain, unclip and unwind in one of the classy cocktail bars.
Courchevel, France
Fly into Chambery Airport
Say bonjour to one of the most famous resorts in the Three Valleys. Not only will you have access to the world’s largest lift-linked ski area, but fine-dining restaurants and upmarket boutiques are yours to enjoy too. You’ll have four villages to choose from, each with a different vibe. Le Praz (1300) and Courchevel Village (1550) are best if you’re after a laidback stay, while Courchevel Moriond (1650) and Courchevel 1850 are livelier.
Zermatt, Switzerland
Fly into Geneva Airport
When it comes to breathtaking backdrops, it doesn’t get much better than Zermatt. Sitting in the shadow of the majestic Matterhorn, a week here is enough to make you fall in love all over again. Upscale après bars? Tick. Shop-lined streets? You bet. Pristine pistes? Of course. This Swiss superstar has it all. You can even box off two countries in one trip, thanks to links to neighbouring Cervinia in Italy. Oozy fondue today and parmesan-dusted pasta tomorrow? Sounds good to us...
Cortina d’Ampezzo
Fly into Verona Airport
Looking for stunning scenery and quiet slopes where you can soak up some much-needed ‘we-time’? Cortina’s calling. This swish town excels in the looks department, thanks to its cobblestone streets and Romanesque bell tower. A pair of foodies? Get ready to feast on traditional delights like beef cheek in red wine and ricotta gnocchi. Lots of major winter sporting events have been held here, with one of the biggest happening in 2026, so you can be sure you’re in good hands.
Zell am See, Austria
Fly into Salzburg Airport
Whether you’re admiring the picturesque panoramas on the slopes or from the lakeside promenade, you’re never far from a stunning view in Zell am See. Make time to wander around the town, among the frescoed buildings, stopping to share a bowl of Kaiserschmarrn (scrambled pancakes). Tree-lined pistes are the norm here and between here and Kaprun, you’ll have 138km of prime winter real estate at your ski tips. You can even embark on some high-altitude adventures on the Kitzsteinhorn glacier at just over 3000m.
