Heavy Snowfall on European Pistes Leads eRentals.co.uk to Advise Advance Car Hire Booking

British ski fans are booking car hire in all the top European destinations as heavy snow falls on resort pistes – and also branching out into less well-known resorts. The announcement comes from car hire website eRentals.co.uk, which advises Brits to get their ski trip car hire booked well before travelling.

The traditionally busy ski resorts throughout countries like France, Italy and Austria are experiencing high levels of car hire reservations, says eRentals.co.uk. However the website also points out that demand for car hire bookings in Bulgaria has surged by 50% compared to twelve months ago, as Brits look for more affordable, better value ski destinations. Among the most popular choices for ski trips this year is Bansko.

Briony Fairbairn, spokesperson for eRentals.co.uk, says: “As usual the ski resorts throughout France, Italy and Austria are proving as popular as ever this year, and we’ve seen high demand for rental bookings throughout the Alps and Pyrenees. However Bulgaria has surged in popularity this year as people seem to look for more affordable ski holidays in more unusual places.”

Thanks to budget airlines offering cheap flights to many destinations around Europe, plus also the availability of budget deals to rent a car in Bulgaria’s ski resorts, UK ski fans can get more for their money. The eRentals.co.uk currently has bargain car hire deals available from Sofia Airport starting at only £6 per day*.

Briony Fairbairn comments: “The heavy snow is seeing people book car hire in big numbers right now, and so we recommend getting organised and booking your rental vehicle well before travelling. This is the best way to avoid missing out on the type of vehicle you want plus also things like snow chains and winter tyres.”

Current ski deals include rental from £6* per day at Sofia Airport; from £17* per day at Milan Malpensa Airport; from £27* per day at Salzburg Airport and from £23* per day at Geneva Airport.
