Emily In The Alps: Ski Like Emily Cooper This Winter

 Season four of Emily in Paris sees Emily, an American marketing fashionista, take to the alps as she tries skiing for the very first time. Renowned for her luxury taste, Collins’ hit character takes to the slopes in Megève, a chic, alpine resort.  

• American marketing star Emily Cooper swaps Paris for the Alps as she tries skiing for the very first time

• Sunweb reveals how to ski like the Parisian-based American, but at a fraction of the cost

Luxurious, stylish and exclusive resorts aren’t always easy to come by in France, with modern, purpose-built resorts aplenty. And while some may lack the elegance Megève can offer, they certainly don’t lack a huge selection of quality runs down the mountains.   

Sunweb, one of Europe’s leading ski operators, has put together two alternative options, giving beginners and experts alike, a similar alpine experience, at a fraction of the cost. 

• Les Menuires  Situated in Les Trois Vallées, the resort is snow-sure and also has one of the best nursery slope areas in world skiing¹ so for new skiers more accustomed to the feel of a high heel than a ski boot, this resort offers a perfect starting point for a ski trip.  Despite being in the Les Trois Vallées region, Les Menuires is tucked away below the more well-known Méribel, meaning accommodation like Chalet Christophe & Elodie are available for as little £443 per person including a lift pass, making it a cheaper alternative to Emily’s trip.  
• La Plagne  Wannabe skiers can head to La Plagne - one of the Alps biggest ski areas – and stay in Résidence Les Hauts de Planchamp for just £579, inclusive of all flights, accommodation and lift pass access to the whole region.  If like Emily, you are more accustomed to carrying expensive bags than ski equipment, this apartment is located a short 150 meters from the lift.  

Spokesperson for Sunweb, Jack Bolus, said: “Emily clearly has expensive taste but that doesn’t mean you can’t go skiing on a budget. 

“With all holiday packages inclusive of a lift pass, ski holidays with Sunweb offer a hassle-free holiday – perfect for skiers of all ages and abilities – even Emily Cooper!”
