Ski holiday FAQs
- The ski resort of Courchevel, around two hours from Geneva Airport, is part of the Three Valleys in the northern French Alps. Expect groomed slopes, pistes winding through forests and off-piste challenges such as Les Avals valley. On clear days there are dramatic views of Mont Blanc. Sample some apres-ski luxury in the resort’s five villages with a glitzy night of revelry fuelled by Michelin-starred dining.
- Meribel, also in the Three Valleys, is peppered with Savoyard hamlets and villages full of wooden chalets. Ski on piques, in snowparks and along freeride routes. Look out across the mountains, where spruces and pines huddle together in forests. Mont Blanc might show its face on a clear day. Meribel is a great choice for families thanks to its fun zones and ski schools. After a day on the slopes, breathe in the fresh alpine air on a terrace or gather around a table at a high-altitude restaurant.
- Stay at the foot of Mont Blanc in Chamonix. The renowned French valley, around an hour from Geneva Airport, is regarded by many as the best freeride resort in the world. Adventure-seekers congregate around Vallee Blanche, raring to take on the legendary 20km off-piste route complete with glaciers and crevasses. Once your skis are off, get cosy with a craft ale or dance beneath a chandelier at a famous mountain clubbing spot. Chamonix is all about good times and gloat-worthy shredding.
The Westin Resort & Spa in Whistler is a spectacular resort offering spacious soaker tubs and incredible mountain views. Unwind after a day of skiing at Avello Spa & Health Club and refuel at Grill & Vine. Stay at Whistler's landmark ski-in ski-out hotel, Fairmont Chateau Whistler, and discover the perfect balance of relaxation and adventure. Check in to Crystal Lodge Hotel for its winning location by the slopes. Stay to soothe your muscles in the outdoor hot tub. Bonus: they've got ski, snowboard and bike valet services at no extra charge. Named the Luxury Resort & Spa of the Year, the Hilton Whistler Resort & Spa boasts a fantastic location. Soak up incredible mountain views from the outdoor heated swimming pool or hot tub. Or why not book your next ski break at the Delta Hotel Whistler Village Suites. Just an eight-minute walk away from the nearest ski lifts, this hotel sits in a fantastic location. When you return after days on the mountain, relax in the heated outdoor pool and soak up the views.
The maximum dimensions for an oversize bag in the hold are 190 x 75 x 65 cm.
A bag larger than the standard size, but within these maximum dimensions, is known as an oversize or out-of-gauge bag. These are usually accepted as part of your checked baggage allowance, though there are some restrictions. Baggage must be packed with appropriate protection and have a stable base so that it won’t roll in the baggage systems.
Larger fragile electronic screens, such as televisions, computer monitors, TV or gaming screens, are not accepted as hold baggage, even if they are within the maximum baggage dimensions or weight. These items can be shipped as cargo.
Let us know you’re bringing an oversize item when you book your flight, or at least 48 hours before departure. You can use the online chat on our Help page (only available in English), especially if your oversize baggage item is sports equipment, as we need to know about oversize bags that include sports equipment like bike boxes, skis or golf bags.
Any oversize bag must be checked in at the out-of-gauge bag drop at least 90 minutes (one and a half hours) before your flight to ensure it has the best chance of travelling with you, as it may need individual handling.
If you make a Flight + Car package, your pre-paid Avis or Budget car will be booked for collection from the Swiss side of Geneva airport. If you make a Flight + Hotel package and add pre-paid Avis or Budget car hire, you can choose to book the French or Swiss side. The same choice applies when making a car only booking, or when using the 'Create custom trip' search tool. British Airways flights land into and depart from the Swiss side of Geneva airport so if you opt to collect your car from the French side, you will need to have your boarding pass handy as it will be required to move between the Swiss and French parts of the airport.
Stay safe on the road with complimentary winter products with Avis & Budget car hire in selected European countries.
Countries included: Austria, Bulgaria, Norway, Germany, Italy, Finland, Sweden, Iceland, Switzerland, France, Poland and Czech Republic. Terms & Conditions apply.
