Poster: A snowHead
|
Really really really want to get a 2nd trip this year, recent events mean we could do with a break.
I've priced the total trip at £1800 - this is for all travel, passes, lessons, ski hire. Is self-catering for family of 5 based on actual costs over Xmas. Destination Vallandry/Les Arcs
This seems ok, but the biggest single item by far is the Family Lift pass at 660euros. More than the apartment!
Would booking at last min produce savings? Or do I just have to cough up?
BTW any "pimp my apartment" offers welcomed

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Boris, I'm not aware of any ways of getting discounted lift passes for Les Arcs/Paradiski other than the family rate; group discounts (but need to be in a large group); property owners (I get a discount on season passes only); or local residents (big discounts on season passes if you have lived locally for several years). Other than those exceptions it seems to be one rate no matter how you buy.
Can't help with accommodation I'm afraid, as I'm using my place for Easter.

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

Boris, Not sure about lift pass prices for your planned destination, but many swiss resorts would issue free passes to kids of the age of yours.

Boris, not a lot that can be done about the pass prices. Other than somewhere with a cheaper lift pass. Serre Che's family pass is €560 euros. but I think there are discounts available at that time of the season, usually starting on Easter Monday, although they aren't advertised on the website . Lift pass is free if under 6, and family pass applies to kids under 18.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Boris, Might be worth asking PG over on mysnowsports.com if there will be a reduction or a family pass

Sounds like a bargain to me.
