blondends, for what it's worth, I have travelled with Equity Ski (Rocket Ski are part of this company) a few times, and found them to be very good. The all-included element of Equity (flight, accommodation, lift pass, lessons, equipment, insurance) DID remove a lot of hassly bits and was usually a good price if you broke it all down. You also have discounts if there are bits you don't need (if you have your own equipment or don't require lessons for example). I think that Rocket Ski are a more basic version of this model, but as the admin, staff etc is all dealt with by the Equity office, you should enjoy the hassle-free benefits. As for best/cheapest, depends on what is important for you - if you want to pay as little as possible, it would certainly be possible to do so (probably cheaper than you are looking at now) but you may then need to compromise on what you get, which with a group of 10 and set requirements, may be easier said than done.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Thanks for the post! I will take a look at EquitySki now.
We don't necessarily want to pay as little as possible - we just want to ensure that we get the best deal we can. I should really have provided a little more detail...
10 Adults - will to sleep in triple or quad rooms
Catered Chalet - (preferably with free wine in the evening, but not essential)
Group discount
Austrian resort - (with good night life)
Accommodation only option - (some want to drive - some want to fly)
Cheers,
Chris

blondends, no problem - if you don't all need/want flights, then the Rocket Ski package may be better for you (not sure you can take an Equity package without flights ) - the accommodation is pretty much the same across the two programmes AFAIR. Schladming may fit the bill.....

I go on a group holiday every year beginning of Feb, about 70 go in total. Used to go with equity but the group leader changed it to Ski-bound to keep cost's to a minimum, personally I would sooner pay the extra and go with equity.
But it is good value, next year Les Menuires £620 for that you get FULL board, local lift pass, full insurance. Downside 4 to a room, but pay £35 supplement to share a twin, think the supplement for full lift pass is £50 so £705 in total.
It is basic, but I spend very little time in the room and the food is OK.
You could get last minute cheaper, but organizing this for 70 + is not possible.
