Lake Louise Ski Area and Chateau Lake Louise are teaming up to offer a ski package that includes airfare from New York. The package gives you a fifth night lodging free in the famed hotel.

The Getaway Air Package, which starts at $1,339 CAD per person, includes nonstop airfare between New York City and Calgary based on availability. It also includes round trip airport transfers, four days of lift tickets, one free ski lesson, and five nights' lodging in a Fairmont room.

The scenic Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise is a storybook luxury hotel sitting on the shores of frozen Lake Louise in Banff National Park. The hotel is a 10-minute shuttle ride from Lake Louise Ski Resort.

The lift tickets included in the package are tri-area passes. You can use them at Lake Louise, Sunshine Village, or Norquay. Transportation to the resorts is also included.

The package is also available departing from other cities. Call to ask about availability. You can add rentals to your package if you want to avoid the cost of checking your skis or snowboard on the airlines.

The Getaway Air Package is valid for stays between Jan. 5 and 31. The rates are based on double occupancy. Call 877-253-6888 to book the package.
