Ski fans taking advantage of the heavy recent snowfall in Europe and North American resorts can save a small fortune on their car hire needs thanks to leading website eRentals.co.uk. The site has this week announced the availability of deals from as little as £20* per day.

Brits heading for the pistes can log on to the car rental website right now and get themselves some great value hire offers for late ski trips - prices are presently available starting at £20* a day from Salzburg and Innsbruck Airports, £21* a day in Aspen, £23* a day from Banff Airport and £21* a day in Salt Lake City.

Briony Fairbairn, spokesperson for eRentals.co.uk, says: “There has been some fine quality snow on the slopes of Europe and North America recently, meaning that people are booking themselves late ski breaks.”

“Whether you have already had a ski trip this season, or are taking your first one now, it’s best to check into the weather and conditions to make sure you’re going to the right resort.”

“We also counsel booking in-demand accessories like winter tyres and snow chains in advance of travelling - rental providers only keep limited stocks of them and are prone to running out.”
