Any one endured Half Term in the area? School are on to us so no more term time days off. How bad are the scrums for the lifts etc?

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

Indeed. I would go at Easter and, failing that, to Italy, probably (and I have an apartment in France).
Globalbagtag, which is your LEA? You need to look carefully at their information - policies vary and most allow a week's unauthorised absence.

Half term can be very busy there. We did Feb half term a couple of times and used to drive up to Chavannes and park for the day to avoid the lift access queues from the village. Mont Chery side is generally fine but may not be suitable for younger skiers. It is a great resort for families - both mine started there but not sure if I would choose it for that week.

Globalbagtag, Champoluc, in Italy is very good for families and will be little or no more busy at half term than any other time.

We skied in Morzine at half term a few years back and went over to the Les Gets side a couple of times. Like most resorts the queues weren't too bad once you got away from the village but trying to get across mid afternoon the main lifts up from the village were very busy with queuing times of over 20 minutes.
Les Gets wouldn't be my choice for half term. If you like to ski further away from the main pistes then someplace with a wider range might be better and if you're happy to stay on the main pistes then you might be better off somewhere quieter.
