Exclusive offers from Powder Byrne  for luxury skiing at Easter

Round-up of late season ski availability 

Powder Byrne has negotiated some exceptional rates this Easter with their luxury hotels in the high altitude resorts, of Zermatt, Flims, Arosa, and Zurs, all offering snow-sure skiing late into the season.

Although February half term week is nearly upon us, there's no need to be concerned if the family skiing holiday has not yet been booked.  With snow conditions now looking good, Easter is still likely to offer excellent conditions and Powder Byrne, the family ski specialist, make it its business to seek out the best high altitude resorts to run its operations for late season skiing.

Powder Byrne has over 30 years experience delivering a personalised service for its clients, and Simon Meeke, Director, explains why families – particularly those with kids who have never skied before - find its bespoke luxury ski holidays at Easter so attractive.    “There's nothing to beat the joys of skiing in warm sunny weather, with good quality spring snow that we so often get late in the season.  In our experience, the slopes in our resorts in Switzerland and Austria quieten down later in the season, so there are less queues for the lifts and the mountain restaurants have more space, with lots of room for diners outside on sun terraces”. 

Powder Byrne operates its private kids' ski programmes in a number of high altitude resorts at Easter.   Dedicated skiing instructors and assistants, who deliver levels of instruction second to none, make sure the day is a bundle of fun for the kids from start to finish.  Combined with some of the highest ratios of adults to kids to be found in the mountains, they are always delighted how well their young charges progress when skiing in the warm Spring conditions.
