Ski holiday company Heidi has revealed Poland, Bulgaria and Andorra as the three cheapest ski holiday destinations you can book right now flying direct from London. Find out how you can enjoy a faff-free, last-minute January ski holiday for less than £500pp!
In response to a live phone-in on ITV’s This Morning last week from a viewer looking to book her first ski holiday for less than £500, cheap holiday expert Chelsea Dickenson recommended two things: Zakopane in Poland as a cheap ski destination, and Heidi’s customisable ski holiday packages.
Heidi ski holiday bookings to Poland are in fact up over 1,000% year-on-year, with Zakopane as the top seller, followed by Kotelnica and Szczyrk. Nestled at the heart of the Tatra Mountains, Zakopane is Poland’s premier winter holiday destination.
So what does Heidi offer that makes it unique? Its clever tech lets you easily find the best deals in seconds and choose from 300+ ski resorts, including great value gems like Zakopane. You can customise how long you go for and even book up to two days before departure to chase the freshest snow.
Marcus Blunt, Co-Founder of Heidi, comments: “We’re passionate about making ski and snowboard holidays affordable and accessible. Our purpose is to help more people enjoy the freedom of the mountains and discover a wide range of resorts, from the ‘classics’ like Chamonix to hidden gems like Zakopane.”
He adds: “Despite budget pressures, thousands of people are using Heidi to get away to the mountains, even if it means a shorter break than the traditional 7-nighter. In the last month alone we’ve seen ski weekend bookings jump by over 40%.”
So if you’re feeling the post-Christmas pinch but craving a last-minute January ski weekend, click on the ‘Weekend’ and ‘Next 2 weeks’ search filters on Heidi.com, choose ‘All London’ on the airport filter – or choose your preferred London airport – then set your budget, and see all the best deals in order of cheapest first. Here are four you can book right now, departing within the next two weeks, and fully ATOL protected:

- However, Heidi recommends Borovets for a weekend trip as its airport transfer time is an hour less than Bansko’s: £330pp for 3 nights B&B at Euphoria Club Hotel in Borovets, Fri 24th – Mon 27th Jan. Including return London – Sofia flights and airport transfers.
- Zakopane, Poland: £280pp for 3 nights at TatroManiac II Zakopane Pokoje Centrum, Fri 24th – Mon 27th Jan, including return London Stansted – Krakow flights and private airport transfers.
