Discounter Aldi is set to launch a travel website offering customers cheap holidays.

Holidays available on the site include beach breaks, city breaks and skiing holidays. Alditravel.co.uk will launch on January 8, 2009.

Aldi group buying director Sarah Butler said: “Aldi travel will offer selected best value deals to the most popular destinations. In the current climate offering quality holidays for less through a trusted brand means holidaymakers can rest assured their holiday will be a memorable one.”

Aldi will also offer Supplier Failure Cover within the price of its holidays so that in the event of an incident any element of the holiday, including flights, can be replaced.
