Another ski holiday specialist appears to have been sunk by covid. London-based Alpine Elements announced in a letter to clients that it has gone into administration as of the 8 December 2020.
There is no announcement on its website or Facebook page yet but the letter from director James Hardiman, outlining the situation, states: “I am deeply sorry for this outcome, but it has been without question one of the hardest decisions I have had to make in 23 years of running the company.
“We have tried so hard (for so long) to try and find a way through this, but the devastating effects of COVID with its continued travel restrictions, lockdowns – and crucially for us – the lack of UK government support and guidance, have left us in this impossible situation.”
The statement continues that Alpine Elements has not received refunds from the many suppliers it had already paid and adds: “We would like to reassure you that your holiday is protected by ATOL or ABTA. Therefore you will receive a full cash refund for all monies paid to Alpine Elements Ltd.”
