Looking to book, but worried about the cost of a family ski trip? Choose your resort carefully as many resorts offer a variety of special ski pass rates for young guests. 

Thankfully, infants ski for free in most European resorts!  But take note!… the age of an ‘infant’ varies from country to country – typically, in France, it means under 5s; in Austria, it’s under 6s; and in Italy, under 8s.  If you have little ones within these age brackets, this makes a huge difference to your holiday bill. 

According to FamilySkiNews.com’s financial advisor, Peter Derrick, skiing with children is especially good value in the Tirol right now.  Click here to view some of the special kids’ deals on offer there this season.
