 Poster: A snowHead
|
Thinking of half-term, 12ish>19ish Feb 2022 and wondering if there is any such thing as a reasonable package from the London area?
I put together a lovely DIY Xmas break staying with friends in France near Crest-Voland for Xmas 2021 and, like so many, we know what happened with France and covid restrictions...
I'm not sure I can bear constructing another DIY trip, but the package alts are understandably expensive. It doesn't have to be France, in fact probably best not, the way covid is, but probably not East Europe.
I had a great trip to Pila a couple of years ago and have been looking at Interski (La Thuile) and Pilaski. They're pretty reasonable but with flights will still be the best part of £2k pp (2 adults/1 child). Is there anything not too basic that's cheaper than that? The idea is just not to have to put too much effort in in case it all has to be cancelled again.... My partner's never skied and we won't be doing much late-night stuff.
Thanks!

Iv never done a package ski holiday - although i have had two cancelled with Crystal.
I get the appeal of the package trip but would you not consider a DIY trip? I generally find it cheaper and easy enough logistically using easyjet and airbnb/vrbo
Weve been lucky enough to find some realy good accom for around £2000 for the week... Lovely apartment for ten days over christmas in Les Collons was only £1500!
Flights inc luggage around £300 - £400 depending on the dates.
Hire car around £800 - £1000 (expensive in Switzerland. Much cheaper in France/Italy)

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

That particular week will be much quieter in Austria than France. Also nicer for non skiers.

Thanks, yes, maybe it will have to be DIY again.... It was just having to cancel everything and try to get money returned after Xmas in France 21 was cancelled...
Thanks for the tip on Austria...
