Decided to take a peek at last minute ski holidays and found there are some good deals going for holidays departing London airports on 24th and 31st.
For example, 1 week half board in Sestriere for £741 p/p. Also Les Arcs catered chalet for c£1k with solo supplement waived.
I am female in 40s, intermediate skier (reds and some blacks), looking to depart this weekend or next. If you're also looking to go away get in touch.

3 threads seems a bit unnecessary.

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

If Les Arcs is Ski Olympic's La Foret myself and my mate Richard are there on the 31st as well.

OK great. That was one of the options I was looking at. What level skiers are you?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I would say we're both reasonable intermediates but Richard tends to drop away around lunchtime as he's a bit out of shape. Me, I'm a first to almost last lift skier.

@Sakura16, Hi I am looking to do the same! was hoping that prices would tumble but maybe that's naive. where did you see those deals? the half board one sounds good.

Conditions look great. I've booked to go to La Plagne from 24th, the Les Arcs trip sounds like a fantastic offer.

Long time since I've been with Ski Olympic but I hope so, the chalet hotel is in a good place but I can' really recall if you can get to the Grizzly from the ski path it's alongside or have to drop down to the Valllandry bubble.

Hi guys, I'm still deciding whether to go on 24 or 31st. Will make a decision today. The conditions do look fantastic. Would be great to join Steve and Richards on the slopes. I tend to ski full days but then maybe take one afternoon off.

All sorted! I've taken the last room on 31st. So look forward to seeing you guys out there.
If anyone's looking to go on 24th there are still rooms available without single supplement.

Unfortunately got a call from Ski Olympic and they'd double booked the last room for 31st. So change of plan, I am now going on 24th Dec.
They still have rooms available on 24th if anyone else is interested. https://www.skiolympic.com/chalet-hotel-la-foret. You have to call them to get the single supplement removed.

First day out on the snow today in Les Arcs. Lovely sunny day and nice long runs. By afternoon certain areas were getting quite icy. So for anyone coming out here over the next week or so when more snow is expected it should be good.

It’s good and there’s plenty of it. Although we have had Christmas dinner so got treated to a few extras like canapés and cheeseboard etc which may not be standard.
