The specialist ski insurance broker is offering a host of new services and products to help you on your trips to the mountains.
MPI Xtras – The Collection is, not surprisingly, a collection of extras.
PlanetSKI partner MPI has teamed up with a range of companies, some offering generous discounts, to ensure that the hassle is taken out of organising all the things you need for your snowsports trip.
It’s aimed at everyone who skis or snowboards, whether you are a seasonaire, a multi-tripper or go for just one week each year.
Among other things it includes information about physiotherapists in resorts, food delivery services, airport transfers and how to find jobs.
There is also a section on useful information which is well worth reading before you travel.
There’s the FIS skiing code of conduct, links to weather and snow reports, UK Foreign Office travel advice and information about the EHIC (European Health Insurance Card).
