Christmas gift idea: give them a trip

This year, put somewhere new to go under the tree. With the Ulysse gift card, you give a travel budget: they choose their destination and dates, then book their flight, hotel or car rental on Ulysse. A gift that takes up no room under the tree, and that they’ll enjoy long after the holidays.

A travel budget, not a trip chosen for them

You choose the amount, from €20 to €5,000, the Christmas design and a short message. The recipient has 2 years to book on Ulysse, in one go or several. It isn’t an all-inclusive package: each flight, hotel or car rental is booked separately, subject to availability and its own conditions.

Why give a trip for Christmas?

Because after the holidays, everyone wants to get away. A trip given at Christmas is a gift they open on December 25 and enjoy all year: a sunny weekend in February, a city break in spring or a summer holiday.

There’s no need to guess their tastes or their holiday dates: you give them the urge to travel, and they choose where and when.

For her, for him, for your parents

Whether it’s a Christmas gift for a woman or a man, for your mum, your dad, your partner or a teenager who dreams of traveling, the gift card suits everyone, since the recipient chooses what to book.

Want to give a joint gift as a family? Each person can give their own card, and the recipient can enter several codes when paying for a booking. You can also collect the contributions and buy a single card for the total. For anyone who mostly dreams of a nice hotel, browse the hotels on Ulysse.

A gift card in a Christmas design

When you order, choose the Christmas design of the card, as an e-card or a printable card. Add the recipient’s name and a festive message: the card is ready to give.

The printable card fits in a stocking, a card or an envelope under the tree. The e-card arrives straight in their inbox. Order the card in its Christmas design.

A last-minute Christmas gift

Running late? The gift card needs no delivery. Choose the e-card and schedule it to arrive by email on the day of your choice, December 24 or 25 for example. Or choose the printable card, print it at home and hand it over in person.

How much to spend on a Christmas gift?

There’s no right amount: the gift card goes from €20 to €5,000. Give what you would have spent on another present, or start from the budget collected for a joint gift.

There’s no need to cover the whole trip. If the booking costs more than the card, the recipient pays the difference at checkout. If it costs less, the remaining balance stays on the card for a future booking, until its expiry date. For a card worth more than €5,000, contact our team.

How does it work?

  1. Choose the format: an e-card sent by email on the day of your choice, or a card to print at home.
  2. Choose the Christmas design and the amount, enter the recipient’s name and add a message.
  3. The recipient searches for a flight, hotel or car rental on Ulysse.
  4. At checkout, they enter their gift card code and pay any difference.

The card is valid for 730 days from purchase to make a booking: the trip itself can take place after that date. It can only be used on Ulysse, not on the website or at the desk of an airline, hotel or car rental company.
