Hey everyone

I've found a good deal via http://www.skiingholidays.com/ and was wondering if they are legit.

Hubby and I tend to book package deals with the likes of Crystal Ski, Inghams etc as we are fairly new to this and not sure of who to book through.

Any response would be much appreciated :D

Hi, never heard of them and they don't appear to be ABTA or ATOL protected, have you done any research on them?

Website looks good though.

I didn't think of ABTA! Hubby looked and they are based in London, have a London telephone number. If they are not ABTA or ATOL though my gut instinct is saying it's a no go. Thanks for your help.

Just looked at the site and didn't think it was value irrespective of abta atol etc etc

There are deals out there to be had, All I can say is be confident in who you book with.

Never had issues with the big names, Mark Warner, Inghams, Crystal, etc

However if find a deal with and unknown and its successful then please let us know.
