That instructor you especially want will be taking the week off. Insufficient demand.
Seriously.....that's my favoured time to go to Val d'Isere. There's still queueing on the roads on Saturday. Slopes and restaurants quiet but not super-quiet. British ski schools really do seem reluctant to commit to running classes due to low demand.

No marauding French or Russians, however, IMO for many reosrts the nightmare stories of horrendous queues are much overstated.

I think as long as I miss the french holidays I should be fine, just need to hope the calendar on here is correct. travel is a Sunday too which helps,

You'll get to see more forums and be part of the best ski club on the net.

If you choose. A resort off the British tour operators radar you could reasonably expect very few queues and quiet piste.

6th March is the Sunday - I've just booked that week.
I though it was the tail end of the French hols - But double checking and they are all back to school. Yipee - Especially as the last lot is Paris and those kide leave a lot to be desired (I know - a generalisation but ...)
