Regional flights tend to go sooner than ones from London airports.

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

1 guest, have you had a look at any tour ops sites yet? Try searches on Crystal and Thomson first, same company but can have different accomodation options. Have a look at Iglu's site aswell but I think it's better if you phone them.Also worth looking at - First Choice. I would look now rather than wait as you may only be left with options that are not so good.
Good luck .

I've been monitoring availability for week beginning 8th March and there is very little not already sold.

8 March was always likely to be a good week in terms of absence of school holidays so I suppose that last minute bargains were never too likely. I do quite a lot of ski flight bookings, because I do all the bookings for friends and relatives visiting us in the Alps (so I can decide when I have to drive to an airport and pick them up!). It is always best to book flights for DIY trips as soon as they come on sale; with rare exceptions they get steadily more expensive and are costly booked at the last minute.
I've been looking at bookings for apartments in our development, with a view to friends/family overflow, and it seems they're pretty well all booked. I've not been able to find an empty space for 8 March, though there are some for the following week. The "shoulder" weeks both sides of the 4 week French school holidays are pretty busy generally.
As the week's been looking like a reasonable bet for snow for some days, I suppose people have swiftly snapped up unsold holidays.
The conclusion? If you're really, really, keen to get away, grab anything you can get now. If you are not too bothered, wait and hope for a very last minute bargain - and have a full tank of fuel in case it entails a bit of a drive.
Good luck.

I'm actually skiing that week as well & there is very little choice at the moment. I booked my trip last week & looking at the same holiday this week, it's actually gone up in price!! If you see something you like the look of, I'd grab it.

Hi 1 guest, Have a look at Mark Warner - they have had good last minute deals in the past (if you can stand a hotel full of other peoples sprogs  ) Not sure if they do regional flights though.

Seconded for Iglu - you can let them do the leg-work for you. Use the link given by minx or me so that snowHeads gets a little bit of money out of the deal.
