Reserving Your Chalet, Deposits & Confirmation In order to secure a chalet and take it off-sale, an initial credit/debit card payment of £500 is required. There is a 24 hour grace period in which this £500 payment will be refunded in full if you change your mind, however after this period, a holiday deposit of 30% of the total holiday cost is payable within the following 48 hours via online bank transfer - this is payable in one transaction and is non refundable. This is also payable on any third party supplier bookings made on the Client's behalf. Flights booked on the Client's behalf are 100% payable at time of booking and the contract exists directly between The Client & the Airline or Operator through whom flights are booked.

Late availability holidays also do not qualify for the offers mentioned in this brochure or on our website such as group discounts or free lift passes. They cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer and the price quoted at the time of booking, is the price payable. We reserve the right to increase or decrease prices prior to booking. Refunds will not be made for those who have booked before these offers started or offers cannot be extended after the expiry date has passed (if applicable). All promotions are only valid at time of booking and are for new bookings only.

A change in flight, ferry, train or transfer time will not constitute a significant change to your holiday as detailed in the above paragraph titled Changes and Alterations by Powder White. Specific instructions relating to travel arrangements made on your behalf will be detailed on your confirmation invoice or via email at the time the travel/transfer booking is made and any changes made to these arrangements will carry a £30 administration fee in addition to any cancellation/amendment fee charged by the supplier.

We cannot accept any liability for delays in flight, ferry or train journeys (whether booked by us or you) to and from the UK whether the delays are caused by adverse weather conditions, rescheduling of times by the airline, sea carrier, train provider, port/airport authorities and/or the action of air traffic controllers, mechanical breakdown, strike or industrial action, or otherwise. Powder White cannot accept responsibility for guests missing flights for any reason or mislaying or destroying travel documents and no credit or refund will be given if you fail to take up a component of your holiday as a result. Where a resort transfer has been disrupted by a delay in any form of travel whether arranged on your behalf by Powder White or not, every effort will be made to reduce any discomfort suffered by you as a result of the delay however we cannot hold responsibility for rearranging these transfers in relation to these delays or if changes in arrival/departure times have not been advised by the Party Leader to Powder White without sufficient notice (at least 4 weeks in advance). In certain circumstances you may be able to make a claim under the insurance policy you have arranged with your own insurer. For self catered apartments, Powder White recommends that guests arrive within reception opening hours.

Ski Pack Organisation & Payments Ski Packs booked through Powder White are payable in Euros or sterling and where the local cost is converted, have been calculated at the rate of: Euro 1.10 / CHF 1.25 / Can$1.65 / US$1.30. Powder White retains the right to alter these conversion rates due to currency fluctuations. There will be no refund paid on services booked or partially/fully paid.

Where ski passes, ski hire or ski lessons have been either pre-booked and paid for in advance or booked and paid for in resort, any associated bank fees are payable by The Client. Once any element of the ski pack has been added to the booking, a 30% deposit is payable or full payment is payable if added within 12 weeks before departure. These can be added by accessing the booking online so individual payments can be accepted, however individuals' payments taken over the phone or payable through Online Banking will not be accepted - these are the responsibility of the Party Leader who will make a one transaction payment.

Alterations may be accepted where possible however an administration charge will be payable for each individual change.

Please note that on ski pass booked both pre-holiday and in resort, proof of age or that you are a family will be required for any lift passes where discounts have been obtained for children, senior skiers or family passes. The areas advertised as being covered by the lift passes in each resort may be altered by local lift pass companies or relevant authorities and may result in a reduction of ski pistes or acres skiable. This is entirely beyond our control and any refund for loss of use of ski pass must be pursued through the local lift pass company directly.

If at any point we run a Buy One Get One Free lift pass offer are always based on 6 day local area passes (without insurance) unless otherwise stated. The lowest price lift pass is the one that is given free. The offer does not apply to family lift passes. There are only a limited number of passes to give away and so these offers are subject to availability and can be withdrawn at any time.

Please also note that on in-chalet ski hire fitting, you will be required to provide heights and foot sizes (sometimes weights) so that equipment can be provided sufficiently and without hassle in resort. This information is in turn handed to our recommended suppliers and whilst every effort is made to ensure the correct equipment is available, there may at times be the need to make alterations in resort to the equipment initially provided. We strongly recommend helmets for everyone and these are obligatory for children.

If we run a Buy One Get One Free ski hire offer, this is based on 6 day silver standard skis unless specified otherwise. The lowest priced equipment is the one that is given free. There are only a limited number of skis on these offers and so they are subject to availability and can be withdrawn at any time. All offers are available at the time of booking and cannot be added subsequently.

Please note that during peak dates such as Christmas, New Year, half term and even Easter, ski schools become fully booked. We therefore strongly advise that you book your lessons in advance on these dates. We operate a referral system whereby your request is forwarded to our recommended suppliers in resort and they will then contact you directly with availability. The contract is between the client and the Supplier directly. Please not that any changes made to ski school bookings are likely to incur significant alteration charges.

Additional Z-Beds/Mattresses Are possible but only in certain properties and on whole group bookings only. Adults using one of these additional beds/mattresses will receive a 25% discount on the pro rata'd whole chalet rate but only if this is over and above the natural occupancy of the chalet (especially relevant to Austrian Twins).

Security Our properties do not have safes for securing clients' valuables and it is unusual for chalets to be locked during the day or overnight, or for there to be locks on bedroom doors. In many cases we offer keys, key cards or combination locks for which a deposit may be payable, but this cannot be guaranteed. In some chalets, parts of the building may be shared by other residents using the same communal entrance.

A guest who breeches this policy will be liable to pay a fine of £100 to pay for additional deep-cleaning required and will be held liable for all other consequential damages sought against Powder White Ltd by other guests and/or property owners.

New Build Projects & Refurbishments A number of chalets are newly built or substantially converted or refurbished for us each season and we take every possible care with the owners to ensure that each such property is completed on schedule. Clearly however, matters outside our direct control, such as local authorities or adverse weather at critical times for example, can occasionally cause delays, and/or there may be changes to the designer's or architect's plans upon which we have we have based our description.

Season Start up We work hard to train all our staff pre-season to the standard required to deliver our services, but our holiday prices are kept low for the first week of the season, reflecting the need for a degree of tolerance from our guests for the fact that staff are settling into new roles.

Walking Distances Where distance i quoted in time taken to walk, we have used a guideline tht 100m takes an adult one minute to walk in standard footwear under normal waling conditions. Clearly timings will vary according to footwear, age, personal fitness and surface conditions. Where free minibus shuttle service is advertised, these will be subject to specific timeframes, capacity restrictions and/or be on a first come first served basis.

Dogs must not be left unattended in the property at any time.

Powder White accepts no responsibility for the action of its guests and shall not be held liable for any claim made against them (or as a result of their actions) by a third party. In addition, the breach of this clause by any one person in any one property booked may cause Powder White to demand immediate vacation of the accommodation by every person named on the booking form.

Powder White Liability (other than for death/personal injury/illness) We endeavour to make sure that the holiday which you book with us is supplied and the services performed or provided by us are performed or provided as per the information detailed on our website. We accept responsibility for the acts of our employees, agents, suppliers and subcontractors where they were at the time acting within the course of their employment or carrying out work that we had asked them to do under their contract of agency or supply with Powder White. In all cases (except where personal injury, illness, death, loss and/or damage to personal possessions results), our liability is limited to the relevant total holiday price of the person(s) affected. In the case of loss and/or damage to personal possessions (including money), Powder White will not accept any liability as it is a condition of your booking (and therefore reasonably assumed by Powder White) that you have taken out appropriate insurance to cover such loss and/or damage before travelling. In the event that local restrictions or an injury or other enforced absence to one or more of our employees causes our normal service to be curtailed or restricted, this will not be accepted as cause for compensation claims. It is a condition of liability that you notify us of any claim in writing within 28 days of your return from holiday.

Powder White Liability for Death, Personal Injury and Illness We accept responsibility should you suffer death, personal injury or illness as a result of any failure to perform or improper performance of any part of our contract with you by any of our employees, agents, suppliers or sub-contractors providing that they were at the time acting within the course of their employment or carrying out work that we had asked them to do under their contract of agency or supply with Powder White. Please note that we cannot accept liability a) where any failure to perform or improper performance was due to acts and/or omissions of a third party not connected with the provision of your holiday and which were unforeseeable or unavoidable; b) for an event which either ourselves or the supplier of the service(s) in question could not have foresee or forestalled even with all due care; c) force majeure (as previously detailed). Please note that in respect of services provided by travel suppliers (where travel or transfers have been booked on your behalf) and hotel keepers, our liability in all cases shall be limited as if we were carriers/hotel keepers within the relevant international conventions. Please also note that in all cases of illness or personal injury, we will require you to provide sufficient medical evidence to back any claim made against us. You are required to obtain this in resort from a local medical centre at the time of the illness. It is a condition of this acceptance of liability that you notify us of any claim in writing within 28 days of your return from holiday (for any reason detailed in this section). In the event of any payment of compensation being made, you must assign Powder White and/or our insurers all rights you may have to pursue a claim against any third party and you must provide us and our insurers with all assistance we may reasonably require. Fraudulent claims will be treated with the utmost disdain and a counterclaim is likely to made in any such circumstance where we feel this has been done.

Legal Assistance If any client suffers death, illness or injury by misadventure whilst overseas arising out of activity which does not form part of the foreign inclusive holiday arrangement or excursion arranged through us, we shall, at our discretion offer advice, guidance and assistance to help you in resolving any claim you may make against a third party, provided we are advised of the incident within 90 days of occurrence. Where legal action is contemplated you must obtain our authorisation prior to commencement of proceedings and such authorisation will be subject to your undertaking to assign any costs recovered or any benefits received under the appropriate insurance policy to ourselves. Our costs in respect of the above assistance on behalf of you and your party shall not exceed £5000 in total.

Complaints Procedure Should you have reason to believe we are not providing what we are contracted to provide, we request that you raise this with our resort staff at the time the problem arises so that we are provided with the opportunity ensure that sufficient improvements or changes can be implemented where we feel appropriate or necessary. If you fail to do so you deprive us and our suppliers of the chance to investigate your complaint and to do our best to rectify any problems. If we are unable to resolve matters whilst you are on holiday and you remain dissatisfied, the Party Leader must write to Powder White, 2 Woodlands Way, London, SW15 2SX within 28 days of your return from holiday giving all relevant information. In any such incident, please note that we will only correspond with one representative of the party and in most circumstances request that this is the Party leader. Please remember that it is your responsibility to show that reasonable care has not been used if you wish to make a claim against us and please accept that should a claim be made against us, the complaint will be fully investigated, reports will be obtained from our resort staff or suppliers where applicable and an informed view on any claim will be taken. Fraudulent claims will be treated with the utmost disdain and a counterclaim is likely to made in any such circumstance where we feel this has been done.

Your written complaint will be acknowledged within 7 working days of receipt of your first letter at our office and thereafter a full response will be provided within 28 days of the date the acknowledgement was sent by Powder White. If you fail to follow this simple complaints procedure, your right to claim compensation will be affected or even lost and we regret that we cannot accept liability in respect of any complaints which are not notified entirely in accordance with this clause.

Jurisdiction These conditions and any contract to which they apply are governed in all respects by English Law and shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of England and Wales.

Insurance It is a condition of booking that all clients have insurance which provides sufficient winter sports insurance. If any person(s) do not take out any insurance, Powder White will not be responsible for meeting any sums which would have been covered by insurance. You will further be responsible for paying to and indemnifying Powder White in any such circumstance for such sums Powder White meets on your behalf. You must tell your Insurers before you travel about anything which may affect your cover. This information must be complete and adequate. If you are not sure whether something is relevant you should advise your Insurers anyway. If you do not tell your Insurers about something that may be relevant your cover may be refused and Insurers may not cover any related claims.

Health, passports & visas It is your responsibility to ensure that documents are in proper order before travel. Powder White accepts no liability for any loss or inconvenience caused as a result of your failure to take reasonable care in this respect. EU Nationals are advised to hold a full passport valid for the duration of the holiday and for at least six months after your return journey. Vaccinations are not currently required to enter Austria, France or Switzerland. Pregnant mothers are advised to obtain clearance to fly both from their doctor and airline if their pregnancy will exceed 28 weeks on the date of their return travel.

Early/late season: Facilities such as lifts, shuttle bus services, saunas, ice rinks and swimming pools may not be operational at the beginning or the end of the season. This may also affect some of the facilities in your accommodation. This may be due to factors such as weather or the number of tourists in resort, repairs or redecoration. These decisions are often made on the spot by their operators and we are not always informed. Where we do know we will do our utmost to let you know. At the beginning and at the end of the season building work in resorts may be taking place. We have no control over these building works and are not made aware of their start and finish times.

Safety: The safety and well being of our guests is of paramount importance to us. We continually strive to improve hygiene and safety standards in all our destinations. All our properties are obliged to meet local regulations although it is important to remember that even in European countries these may not match those in the UK, which are some of the most stringent in the world. In ski resorts particularly, many buildings are made of timber, often without separate fire escapes, may contain bedrooms or bathrooms with no windows or may have rooms with limited head-space below the eaves. We strongly advise that you and your party familiarise yourselves with your accommodation, safety procedures and location of fire extinguishers and request specific information if required before booking a particular property. It is the responsibility of you and your group to judge the suitability of each area in which you ski. If you or any member of your group ski in a location on the recommendation of or accompanied by any representative of Powder White, Powder White will not be liable for any injuries howsoever caused.

Lost Property Please advise us as soon as possible if you have lost personal belongings or left these in resort on your departure so that we are given every opportunity to locate these missing/forgotten items. Whilst we do everything possible to locate lost property, we cannot guarantee to do so or to be able to arrange for your property to be returned. If we are able to locate lost property and arrange for its return, all postal costs of so doing must be paid in advance along with an administration charge of £25 per item/package. We cannot be held responsible for lost property whilst in transit to the UK howsoever this is arranged. We reserve the right to increase the administration charge for the return of lost property for bulky items with special dispatch costs.

Problems If you are ever unhappy with any aspect of your holiday, you must address your complaint immediately to both the chalet manager and the local service provider if applicable. In the unlikely event that your problem cannot be resolved locally, you must inform Powder White in writing of your complaint within 28 days of your return so that any rights to compensation can be examined.

ATOL Protection Many of the flights and flight-inclusive holidays on this website are financially protected by the ATOL scheme. But ATOL protection does not apply to all holiday and travel serices listed on this website. Please ask us to confirm what protection may apply to your booking. If you do not receive an ATOL Certificate then the booking will not be ATOL protected. If you do receive an ATOL Certificate but all the parts of your trip are not listed on it, those parts will not be ATOL protected. Please see our booking conditions for information, or for more information about financial protection and the ATOL Certificate go to: www.atol.org.uk/ATOLCertificate

Your Financial Protection When you buy an ATOL protected flight or flight inclusive holiday from us you will receive an ATOL Certificate. This lists what is financially protected, where you can get informatioin on what this means for you and who to contact if things go wrong. We, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL Certificate, will provide you with the services listed on the ATOL Certificate (or a suitable alternative). In some cases, where neither we nor the supplier are able to do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide you with all the services your have bought or a suitable alternative (at no extra cost to you). You agree to accept that in those circumstances the alternative ATOL holder will perform those obligations and you agree to pay any money outstanding to be paid by you under your contract to that alternative ATOL holder. However, you also agree that in some cases it will not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case you will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL scheme (or your credit card issuer where applicable). If we, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL certificate, are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) you under the ATOL scheme. You agree that in return for such a payment or benefit you assign absolutely to those Trustees any claims which you have or may have arising out of or relating to the non-provision of the services, including any claim against us, the travel agent (or your credit card issuer where applicable). You also agree that any such claims may be re-assigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums you have claimed under the ATOL scheme.

Brexit The UK’s decision to leave the EU could have significant implications across the UK travel industry on the legalities, work permit requirements, working hours regulations and costs of employing in-resort staff within the EU. With the impact of the Brexit vote still uncertain and negotiations ongoing in 2018, we reserve the right to amend/reduce our chalet staffing and/or catering offering, in the event that any change in employment or other EU regulations renders our current staffing operations untenable. Any such changes would of course be notified to you as soon as possible, however we do not currently anticipate any major changes for the 2018/19 ski season.
