"We had great snowfalls last week giving superb coverage to all slopes. This week has stayed cold but the sun is now shining. Families [arriving] for Christmas look set to have an exceptional holiday," Chris Thompson, managing director for the company, commented.
It was recently reported by the Association of British Travel Agents (Abta) that the early season Alp snow suggests that the coming ski season will be "one of the best" seen in a while.
