Sefa Wintersports 2022 Waitinglist

Are you still not over the fact that we couldn’t go on our annual Sefa Wintersports last year?  Well, you better rub off the dust from your skiing gear and get ready to join us for 8 days of pure fun in Les Deux Alpes!

All this, with your best friends and fellow students! Even if you sign up by yourself, you will have ZERO problems meeting new people, that’s an absolute guarantee!

Important information about Covid-19 and Insurance

Covid regulations*

In line with the current French regulations, it will be possible to join the trip given the following conditions, valid at the time of the trip:

• You have recently recovered from Covid over the last 180 days (6 months) or
• You have received your second vaccination during the last 7 months or
• You have received your third (“booster”) vaccination or
• You have had covid more than 6 months ago and you have had one vaccination during the last 7 months. 

The French government has recently announced that a negative test cannot be used to receive a “corona pass”, which is needed to access, among others, ski lifts, hotels, and restaurants. Therefore, people that do not meet the recovery/vaccination status will not be able to sign up and join the trip. Unfortunately, this is something that is outside of our control. Make sure to check carefully that you meet the requirements! 

For more information please consult the latest update of the following website (only available in Dutch). Or, for information in English, on this website by the French government. 

*Keep in mind that this information is subject to changes in the Covid regulation on location. 

Insurance

All individuals are responsible for their own insurance coverage in case of cancellation. With Skifest, it will be possible to buy the cancellation insurance “All-risk” (€48.09). We strongly advise you to buy this extra option in order to have protection in case you test positive before the trip or you can’t join the trip for any other reason. 

What does this insurance cover?

• 100% reimbursement of the price if you cancel because of covid related issues (quarantine, tested positive, etc.)
• 75% reimbursement of the price if you cancel the trip for any other reason: also if you don’t have a “valid” justification.
