Fairmont Whistler Delivers Powder to the People

The Fairmont Chateau Whistler Launches New 'Powder Package'


WHISTLER, B.C., Jan. 10, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- With the best snow conditions anywhere in North America and some would say the world, there's never been a better time to book your Whistler ski vacation. With over 17 feet of snow so far (518 centimetres), Whistler currently has twice as much snow as any ski resort in Canada or the U.S. In honour of La Niña's generous snow fall, The Fairmont Chateau Whistler has launched a brand new winter offer, the Whistler Powder Ski Package.

Bookable now for travel from February 26th, 2012 until April 25th, 2012, The Fairmont Chateau Whistler's 'Powder Package' includes accommodation for two, two adult lift tickets per day, and a hearty buffet breakfast for two daily in the Wildflower restaurant, perfect for filling up before a long day on the slopes. Rates for this exciting new Whistler hotel package start from just $229.00 CDN per person, per night. The Whistler Powder Ski Package rates are based on double occupancy and are subject to availability and applicable taxes. With more snow on the horizon for the foreseeable forecast, lock in your winter holiday now at North America's top ski resort.

Nestled at the base of Blackcomb Mountain, you'll discover a chateau-style hotel with luxurious rooms, a wide array of dining options, ski-in/ski-out mountain access, and a full-service spa.
