We’re delighted to share that SkyExpress, our trusted transfer partner, has been awarded World’s Best Ski Transfer Operator 2025 at the prestigious World Ski Awards. This global recognition highlights their outstanding commitment to service, safety, and guest comfort — values that closely align with our own here at Ki Niseko.
Since 2013, the World Ski Awards have recognised excellence across international ski tourism. From hotels and chalets to resorts and service providers, the awards celebrate organisations that raise the standard of guest experience around the world.
