what do you want?
nightlife (depends on what age teenagers you are)? cheap prices?
It'd help to give some of the things you want from a resort.
what standard of skiing are the members of your group?

I know my welsh is not very good or it may be my age, but you should stay on at school for the week i think  .. lol
so, are you and your mates going "with" the school again or first solo trip? How many of you and what sort of budget?

price range?

|
|
|
we decided not to go with the school and all 5 of us wantto go on our first solo ski trip our price range is around £800 to £1000 pp however tht is the limit and we want some money left to collect together for food and drink etc
|

|
|
when you thinking of going? cos thats gonna make it vary massively. I love St Anton in Austria, great nightlife although the guy with not so much experience would possibly struggle with some of the badly marked up blue runs.

ok, I went mid-late feb last year and it cost me £600 for a catered chalet with flights. Lift pass was about £200 ish and Ski hire £120 i think. But you could obviously go cheaper if you self cater.
Although I've not been myself Pas De La Casa is fairly cheap, apparently has good apres ski and pretty decent skiing, sure someone will be along shortly to say if I'm right or wrong about this! I'm looking at going to either of those two resorts myself this year

look at £4-£5oo for flights accom and lift pass, the rest is beer and food. you need to decide on a few places that you fancy and then look into prices and then come back for more detailed help.

I'm going to Pas de la Casa with 4 other guys in the Feb half term. We're all going to be 16 or 17 so it should be great! Apparently the night life is good and the skiing's meant to be alright.
Also, alcohol is tax free, so thats going to save us a load
We've payed £700, not including food or drink.

SlimJim0001, £700 seems a bit dear for pas compared to what I've been looking at, especially if your not catered or HB  u got some details????

It's the half term holiday, and half of that cash has gone on skis and lift passes.

Yeah... I'm confident I've got a good price considering the time of year, exchange rate  and the fact that we had limited accom options because of booking in November.

Welsh-Skiing, My son and his mates ski each year and have found it cheaper to stay in a catered chalet rather than self-catering. Meals out can be quite pricey - even in Andorra. You can usually get a good deal from a travel operator if there's a group of you.

You wont find many catered chalets in Andorra. Go self catered - take supernoodles, pasta and sauce etc with you. You'll just get hammered and puke it up anyway.
I'm not a pedant but it is ONCE not ONES - jesus A levels must be easy now.

 Self catering does not equal "meals out"!!!! Self catering = self catering. Then it's much cheaper.
