(OPENPRESS) December 16, 2011 -- The ski resorts of Europe are receiving heavy snowfall right now, prompting car hire website eRentals.co.uk to recommend advance booking on ski trip car hire to avoid being disappointed.
As usual the highest demand for ski trip car hire comes from the traditionally popular resorts in France, Italy, and Austria, but eRentals.co.uk also reports that there is high demand for rentals in Bulgaria too this year. The site has seen a rise in bookings of 50% compared to a year ago, with Brits picking resorts like Bansko to get more for their budgets.
Briony Fairbairn, spokesperson at eRentals.co.uk, comments: "There's been slow snowfall early in the ski season this year but the snow is really coming down now. On the back of that we've seen a surge for ski resort car hire, in the traditional resorts in the Alps and Pyrenees plus also in Bulgaria, as people look to get as much as possible for their budgets."
This year has seen many British ski fans choose Bulgaria as a holiday destination to take advantage of cheap air fares and budget rent a car deals. Rather than cancel a ski trip due to tight budgets, people are picking more affordable destinations - with eRentals.co.uk reporting car hire deals from Sofia Airport starting at just £6 per day*.
Briony Fairbairn went on: "Our advice to ski fans is book your rental car early or risk missing out on the kind of car you need. You could also be disappointed if you are hoping to secure extras like winter tyres or snow chains on arrival in your destination."
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.
