Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi Folks,
I'm hoping to go boarding/skiing with a few friends in Jan/Feb/March 2010 and it's been suggested that we look out for a last miunte deal to a catered chalet.
I have to say I don't know a huge deal about resorts other than the more popular ones but only by name rather than what they're best for.
My friend's been to France and Austria... and seems to favour Austria...
I did go to Zermatt in June for a bit of summer boarding which I loved. But it's quite a trek out there and I think something a little closer would be better.
Have any of you had some good deals or can recommend any good travel agents/operators?
Thanks in advance. (Sorry if this question is asked a lot!)

crumble, welcome to snowheads. Yes, the question does crop up frequently but the advice bears repeating
January will be cheapest, then march, with feb being most expensive as it's half term
keep your eye on the big aggregators rather than individual tour ops - igluski.com, alpineanswers.co.uk, ifyouski.com etc etc. Onec you find a holiday you like the look of, find out more detail about the specific chalet / hotel
the bigger the group, the harder you;ll find to get a last minute deal. If ti's two of you, fine. If it's 20 of you, book now.
don't go by "reputation". I'd be happy with one lift, in the right conditions: equally I've been stuck in a "high mileage" resort for a week in crappy weather and hated it

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

Thanks for the tips and info -. I'll have a look through those.
There will probably just be three of us going, so I guess we'd have more of a chance finding something.

Thanks for all the links guys! Very helpful of you
I like how St Anton Chalets shows the space remaining, really useful.
Alpine answers look like they have some pretty good deals too.
Plenty to go at - Thanks very much!

Hi, holidaying at Ski Chalets is a wonderful idea and that too with friends. Well, I would suggest you to spend your fun time holidays at Scott Dun Ski Chalets. They've got attractive packages and really luxurious rooms and services with a lot of out door as well indoor activities for fun.
