Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Poster: A snowHead
Need some help here guys.

We got a bit sloshed the other night..... Embarassed and booked a whole bunch of (13 to be exact) flights to Geneva Weds-Weds 19-26 March 2008.

We are 3 families (6 adults and 7 kids aged 5-11 - 5,7,7,7,8,10,11)

We are looking for a catered chalet preferably in France with airport transfers for a week but this Wednesday thing is worrying me.....

We would prefer to go and sleep high with ski in and out....

Errr Puzzled

Anyone?

I'd recomment having a look in the solutions room on www.chaletsdirect.com post the same thing as above and see what offers you get........We've found places for unusual dates using this method, though not for 13!!!!

wellyski, you might be better looking for hotel accommodation, as they are often more flexible.

http://www.alpine-encounters.com/ These people have (in the past) taken "odd" bookings, it may be worth contacting them for at least some of your trips...I managed to make two similar bookings totally without the assistance of alcohol, the mid week prices are just so tempting. If you rent a car each time and are prepared to drive a bit in the mornings to the hill then you could possibly find more flexible accomodation.

wellyski,

Why not try the french websites as your dates do not coincide with French school holidays so they might be more flexible. If you decide on a resort, try the local tourist office website for French owned/run accomodation.

We often travel on weekdays to get cheaper flights but hotel accomodation is probably the way to go as 'ssnowman, ' suggests. What about something like this: http://www.christophe-leroy.com/hotelavoriaz/hotel.php ?

Not stayed there myself but it's high and piste-side.

Find some accommodation that you really like, book it up for four weeks (obviously on a very preferential rate Wink ) then sell on "Rare opportunity" 10-day ski holidays on either side of your own week. The fact that your 'lucky punters' can get cheap mid-week flights in one direction is a helpful selling point.
Never know, you might subsidise your own trip if you bargain well.

... if you've got the nerve Wink

wellyski,
Someone last year posted on snowHeads with midweek dates and got hotel accommodation in Switzerland. You can get decent price transfers with the railways. Many of the Valais resorts offer high skiing. Good Luck.
