This past Sunday, I had the pleasure of attending Jet2’s Festive Apres-Ski Event at the charming Friends of Ham in Leeds. As the winter season approaches, Jet2 is showcasing their exciting ski flights and Christmas market destinations, and this event beautifully captured the spirit of the season. Here’s a little glimpse into what made the day so special!
A Warm Welcome with Thoughtful Vegan Options
Knowing that I’m vegan and don’t drink, the team at Friends of Ham went above and beyond to ensure the menu was inclusive. They curated an incredible vegan selection and paired it with non-alcoholic drinks that felt celebratory and indulgent. The food was so plentiful and delicious that I couldn’t even finish it all – a true testament to the generosity and thoughtfulness of the hosts! It’s always a joy to see event organisers making an effort to accommodate all guests, and this was no exception – the vegan dishes were so flavourful!
Wreath Making with Basement Blooms
The highlight of the event for me was the wreath-making workshop led by Basement Blooms. The creative process was utterly delightful, and I couldn’t resist incorporating velvet ribbon and mini disco balls into my design. It was such a fun and festive way to embrace the season, and I left with a wreath that felt truly unique – a perfect addition to our holiday décor.
Goody Bags Worth Writing Home About
Jet2 absolutely spoiled us with thoughtful goody bags. Mine included a cosy Jet2 hoodie, ski socks, a festive ski tree decoration, some delicious biscuits, and a delightful vegan Hotel Chocolat penguin. The personal touches, especially the vegan treat, made it feel so special.
Inspiring Winter Travel Ideas
The event also highlighted Jet2’s offerings, including:
- Ski flights to destinations like Geneva, Salzburg, and Grenoble.
- Magical Christmas market destinations such as Vienna, Berlin, and Krakow.
From cosy winter getaways to thrilling ski adventures, Jet2’s offerings this season are inspiring. Their Christmas Markets and Ski Flights pages are full of ideas for your next winter escape.

From the warm hospitality at Friends of Ham to the creative energy of Basement Blooms and Jet2’s incredible attention to detail, the Festive Apres-Ski Event was an afternoon to remember.

Thank you, Jet2, for such a thoughtful and festive afternoon. I left feeling inspired, pampered, and ready to embrace the magic of the season!
