Quality Coach Hire for School Ski Trips

Getting the right vehicle for the journey

While we offer a range of vehicles to suit different group sizes, our 71‑75 seat coach is the true workhorse for school ski trips. Big enough to accommodate a full year group or multiple classes, yet manageable on alpine roads and mountain passes. These coaches are ULEZ‑compliant and built for long trips, with optional onboard toilet, ample luggage room for skis and boots and comfortable seating throughout.

For smaller groups, we have other options too: our 49‑seater executive coach is ideal for mid‑sized bookings where the full 71‑75 might be too much, and our 34‑seater midi coach gives you the flexibility of a smaller party with all the same safety and comfort features. For very small groups or teachers and support staff we also offer our 19‑seater executive mini coach with air‑conditioned comfort, chilled water and 4G Wi‑Fi.

Why the 71‑75 seat coach works so well on ski trips

When you’re heading to major resorts such as those around Innsbruck, Chamonix, Les Deux Alpes or St Anton you’ll want a coach that handles long motorway stretches, steep climbs and narrow mountain roads with ease. Our 71‑75 seat coach offers a superb balance between capacity and manoeuvrability. Legs move freely, luggage holds plenty of skis and boots and the optional toilet means fewer stops and more ski time. The ULEZ‑compliant engine ensures you can pick up and drop off in London if necessary without paying large fees.

Comfort and safety on the road

A school ski trip is exciting but it also demands professional transport. Our coaches are tracked using telematics, fitted with CCTV and audio recording, and cleaned thoroughly before every trip. Drivers are DBS‑checked, well‑presented and aware of the needs of a school group. Because the journey can be long, especially when travelling from East Sussex or London down through the Channel Tunnel or ferried across the sea, we provide extra comfort: air‑conditioning, 4G Wi‑Fi, and plenty of luggage space means students remain comfortable and engaged.

Ideal trips and destinations

Whether you are planning a week‑long ski tour to the French Alps, a longer two‑week adventure to Austria or even a multi‑resort itinerary across Switzerland and Italy, coach hire for school ski trips with JRP Direct gives you the freedom to schedule your own stops, tailor the route and arrive fresh and ready to hit the slopes. Schools travelling from East Sussex, Kent or London can benefit from a direct pick‑up and full journey door‑to‑door.
