What Travelski does

Travelski is a French online ski vacation platform operated by TRAVELFACTORY SAS, headquartered in Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine with a customer service office in Chambéry, Savoie. Founded in 2005 and serving France, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom, the company sells customizable all-inclusive ski packages that bundle transport, transfers, accommodation, ski lift passes (skipass), equipment rental, ski lessons, and additional services such as insurance and dining options into a single booking. The platform covers more than 100 French Alpine resorts across the Northern and Southern Alps, the Pyrenees, and the Massif Central, and is built on a standard web e-commerce stack integrating Systempay 3D Secure payment processing, AT Internet and Google Analytics for behavioral analytics, and Meta for advertising and audience-building.

The company's core product is its package configurator, supplemented by related offerings such as Travelski Home (premium rentals), standalone ski apartments, vacation clubs, premium residences, chalets, and hotels. Travelski also operates the Travelski Night Express overnight train in partnership with Pegasus Trains as a differentiated transport leg to Alpine resorts, and runs the annual Dutchweek event in Val Thorens as a flagship acquisition and retention vehicle for the Dutch market. Corporate and group distribution is handled via dedicated CSE (Comité Social et Économique) portals for partners such as Sofinco and CGOS.

Travelski makes money primarily by selling bundled ski packages as a registered French tour operator (registration IM092110042), with ancillary revenue from optional add-ons (cancellations insurance, equipment upgrades, transport tickets). Pricing follows dynamic, all-inclusive per-package rates in euros with a 30%-deposit / balance-due-40-days-before-department flex tariff and a fixed full-payment tariff. Travelski is a privately held subsidiary within the Groupe Travelfactory structure, with affiliations to the Compagnie des Alpes leisure group; ownership and revenue figures are not publicly disclosed.

Revenue model

1. Package holidays (forfaits touristiques): Travelski's primary revenue stream comes from selling customizable all-inclusive ski trip packages. Customers select transport, transfer, accommodation, ski lift passes (skipass), equipment rental, ski lessons, and extra-ski options (spa, dining) in a single bundled transaction. Prices are dynamically managed and displayed in euros. The company acts as a tour operator (operator of travel and stays), registered under IM092110042.
2. Standalone train tickets (Travelski Night Express): Travelski sells standalone rail tickets for the Travelski Night Express overnight train service operated by Pegasus Trains. These tickets cover point-to-point transport only and are regulated separately from package holidays.
3. Optional add-ons and ancillaries: Additional revenue is generated from optional extras bundled in packages: ski school enrollment, equipment rental upgrades, food/beverage deliveries, parking, and travel insurance. Cancellation insurance (Assurance Annulation Zen) is also sold as an add-on.
