Is that a good price for booking so far ahead? We booked last week with BA flights from Aberdeen inc ski carriage, transfers and staying in crystal for 14 nights at just under £1500 flying out on the 11th March (this year).
One good tip is have a look at the epic season pass!

I costed the same trip with several tour operators and Inghams were by far the cheapest option. No difference in cost between Air Canada or BA but the Air Canada flight times were more suitable. It is early to book so far ahead but as there is 30+ of us it’s necessary to get the accommodation and with the uncertainty surrounding Brexit and how the £ may fluctuate I thought it prudent to get my reservation/ booking in early. I have looked at the Epic pass and that is definitely an option depending on where my other 2 group ski trips are for 2020 for the same people going on all 3 trips. Hope you enjoy Whistler this year. 36 of us went in 2017 and loved it and the Crystal Lodge is in a perfect location. The Apres is brilliant. Would highly recommend Earls to eat one night. Enjoy!

I was sitting in earls 5 weeks ago, getting my moneys worth out of my epic pass!
Crystal is a good balance of location and price, always found booking on there own website was far cheaper than any tour operator.
Because the epic pass has worked so well this year, I was looking at booking cheap flights for next season. KLM/air France was coming in at just under £300 return for a few dates in December, would also need to add a bag on at £80 return. But this would give you a extra stop which may be a deal breaker, doesn't make a difference to us as we will be connecting through a European city flying from Aberdeen.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Just a quick word of caution - I flew Air Canada to Calgary a couple of years ago and the seating was extremely squashed is economy, which is presumably where the package will put you - may be worth upgrading to economy plus given the length of the flight.
