|
| This popular, well-appointed 20 bed ski chalet with hot tub and sauna has an almost ‘ski-back-to-door’ location. Situated less than 10 minutes from the local shops, ski lifts and bars it's the perfect location to enjoy all that Meribel and the French Alps have to offer. You'll spend 7 nights here including return flights, transfers, daily breakfast, cakes and afternoon tea, six 3-course evening meals with wine included (until dessert) and all from as little as £406 per person. Check it out here for more details. |

This week's top travel hacks |
| 10% off Hotels.com - Get 10% off all hotels using the code HOTEL2018. The offer is only available to Hotels.com email subscribers and Hotels.com mobile app users. It's only valid when you click through from your Hotels.com coupon email to their website, or use the Hotels.com mobile app to book. Use the code by 29th January for travel before 28th May 2018. |
|
| No London Congestion Charge - The charge (or tax, as some consider it) is being waived between 25th December and 2nd January. At £11.50 per day during a normal working week, that makes a fairly nice Christmas gift. |
|
| 750 Avios from e-Rewards - Another Avios giveaway in exchange for 10 minutes of your time. e-Rewards are currently offering 750 Avios to new users who complete their first survey. Full details can be found on our post here |
|
| 500 Avios for trying finance app Bud - If you're an Avios collector like me, you can grab 500 points in exchange for 2 minutes of your time. Bud is a new personal finance app and brand new partner on Avios.com. To get the Avios, use the link below to sign up to the service. Follow the instructions (which are pretty slick) and be sure to enter your Avios.com account details to link the two accounts. Once that's done, you've earned the points. There is no requirement to add any further Banking or CCard account details. Just be sure to sign up before 4 January 2018. Sign up here |
|
| 500 Avios for joining IHG Rewards Club - You could get an easy 500 Avios simply for signing up. Just use the link below before 31st December and make sure you set up your profile so that you get British Airways Avios instead of IHG Rewards Club points. That's it. They'll add to your BA account with the Avios in a month or two. Sign up using this link |
|
| Virgin Atlantic winter sale - Another round of winter flight reductions has begun. Virgin Atlantic return flights can be found from £385, including Dubai, New York, Orlando and LA. While you will find flights for less on Norwegian and Thomas Cook for the same destinations, Virgin is a full service airline that scores consistently high with its customers and despite our penchant for Avios, you might prefer to join (or already be joined up to) the Virgin Atlantic Flying Club. Book by Monday 19th December. Check availability here |
|
| Malmaison Hotels - room, dinner and wine from £89 - A nice little winter warmer from Malmaison Hotels from £89, including a room for 2, a two-course dinner plus a bottle of wine. Maimaison Hotels are very swanky, so it's an ideal treat for someone special. The hotels can be found in Aberdeen, Belfast, Birmingham, Brighton, Cheltenham, Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds, Liverpool, London, Manchester, Newcastle, Oxford and Reading. Check availability here |
