Costs for 2026/27

How much does a family ski holiday cost?

For two adults and two children aged 4 and 9, a week at a mid-range resort in February half-term comes to an estimated £3,700 to £7,400, with flights, accommodation, lift passes, ski school and hire. At budget resorts it’s about £3,250 to £6,050. Food and insurance are extra.

The middle of our estimates for the 90 resorts we cover, flying out for 7 nights in the week of 15 February 2027. Prices looked up 23 October 2026.

Lift passes by country

The middle price of an adult day pass for 2026/27, from the resorts where we found one. We convert euros to pounds at £0.8377 per euro, the European Central Bank rate on 22 October 2026.

Adult day pass, 2026/27
Austria (32 resorts)€80 a day (about £67)
France (32 resorts)€70 a day (about £58)
Italy (12 resorts)€71 a day (about £59)
Switzerland (9 resorts)€97 a day (about £81)

We have too few resorts in Andorra, Finland and Spain for a fair middle price, so they aren’t in the table.

What half-term adds

Flights and accommodation cost more in half-term, so our estimates add 20% to both. For the family above at a mid-range resort, that’s about £650 more than a week outside the school holidays.
