Unfortunatly this easter the uni ski trip falls on the week in which I have to hand in my dissatertation (and ESOB is over the week when i have my group project hand in.) so im stuck organising my own ski trip this easter.
Ive managed to find a couple of good deals on accomerdation, and found some BA flights to geneva which are (just) affordable (after last summer i dont fancy risking Easy Jet again!) but im a bit stuck on finding prices for the transfers.
At the moment im looking at accomerdation in 3 resorts (LDA, Teigns and VT), but after going through the list of transfer companys on the wasteland website I cant seem to find anything sutible.
So i was hopeing that some clever snowhead can tell me roughly how much the transfer should cost p.p. and where i should be looking to book it.
ATM theres only me and my flatmate going, but hopefully once i have the price i can badger some more into joining us

We used www.altibus.com for the outward leg... it was about £45 per head Geneva to VT one way. We used http://www.3vt.co.uk/ on the return, flippin' expensive for 2 - cheaper than the bus if you can get >4 in - they will do shared transfers but only for people on the same flight.

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

the_fatadder, the transfer cost is always a lot more than you want to pay, especially with only 2 of you! I think even the buses are pricey. You could perhaps look at the cost of a cheap last minute TO deal?
Hope it works out. One tip on your dissertation; use the spellchecker....

as an alternative, ive also found flights into Grenoble for a similar price.
the transfer to LDA looks pritty promising (i found the www.bensbus.co.uk link in another thread.) but their website dosnt show past the 14th April.
So I was just wondering how difficult it would be to travel from LDA back to Grenoble using public transport?
I have had a look at tour opps offers, and found a couple which look appealing. right up untill i read that its another hundred quid for the lift pass!

But you always have to buy a lift pass, however you get there! Doesn't make any difference, really. If you're on a v tight budget you could wait for last minute TO offers - if you're looking at the second half of April you'll probably be restricted to a few high places, but LDA could be good. I don't know about buses from Grenoble - but someone will. The airport is to hell and gone, middle of nowhere, miles from Grenoble, that's for sure, and in the wrong direction. Put the question on the LDA thread and you'll get some helpful replies, I'm sure.

will go and post in the LDA thread now...
