Plymouth, UK (Friday, July 14, 2006) - Brittany Ferries, which offers car ferry service between the U.K., Ireland, France and Spain, will offer self-drive ski vacations to eight resorts in the French Alps for the 2006-07 ski and snowboard season.

Taking the ferry instead of a plane provides the freedom of having your car with you at the resort, and allows you to bring as much baggage as you can fit into your vehicle. Packages are offered to the ski and snowboard resorts of Avoriaz, Belle Plagne, Les Coches, Val d'Isère, Valmeinier, Valmorel, Val Thorens and Vars.

Prices start at £119 per person for a midweek round-trip sailing to France, including a car and four occupants plus a week's property rental at the resort.
