Gama Aviation teams up with Art de Vivre to create exclusive ski chalet collection for 2015/16 season

Gama Aviation has teamed up with Art de Vivre to create a selection of exclusive chalets for this winter's Alpine ski season. The chalets, costing anything between £50,000-100,000+ per week, offer a unique ski experience with a butler, sommelier, chauffeur and ski guide as bespoke options to make a client's stay more comfortable.

The chalets, located in popular alpine centres in Europe including; Verbier, Gstaad, Zermatt, Klosters, Lech, St. Moritz and Courchevel 1850, offer the discerning skier a wonderful base for what promises to be an excellent ski season if the forecast El Nino forms.

Duncan Daines, group chief marketing officer, Gama Aviation said: ”Working with Art de Vivre we are able to suggest a selection of unique properties that fit with our managed and charter clients extremely high standards. This, combined with our European fleet, our ability to fly into the likes of Chambery Savoie and our in-house travel concierge service, and we have the means to offer a complete, highly bespoke package, to our clients. The Alps have always been blessed with a style and romance that has a magnetic charm; which is perhaps why we have already had interest from clients in Asia, the GCC and the US so early in the season.”

Julie Gauthier, founder and director of Art de Vivre said: “We are pleased to be working with Gama Aviation on this year's collection. Private aviation has a natural fit to our business and we aim to work with organisations that have like-minded ambitions to provide the very best experiences for their clients. Europe has always been a stylish and sophisticated ski destination and we are seeing more people travelling from further afield to the Alps. Gama Aviation's geographic reach and service quality make it a highly complementary marketing partner.”

The ski collection is available to view at Gama's website. Further chalets will be added to the collection during the ski season.
