Poster: A snowHead
|
I origionally posted that I would be doing this trip over New Year but I'm now going a week later for the(much quieter) 1st week of Jan.
In a nutshell: twin room with en suite, full board, lift pass, tuition (any level including off piste which I'm doing), quality equipment and transfer from/to geneva. £700. (£60 less if your not doing off piste)
If anyone wants to join me to get a twin room then make it quick because I'm gonna book it in the next 3 days (and take my chances with the Frenchies and Scandies). If there are more than one of you then we can get a room for 4 and knock £46 off the price.
go to:
www.action-outdoors.co.uk for all the details.
I noticed that there are a number of other snowheads doing this trip so plenty of people to share a few beers with..

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

jzBun, should be no problem finding people to share a few beers with, even without snowheads. My son in law had a great time at UCPA - and he speaks not a single word of French. He found it friendly and relaxed.

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

pam w, I never have problems finding another person to have a beer with - I'm schizophrenic!
What I'm really after is a twin room which you can only book if you have a mate to book at the same time. Otherwise it's a bunk beds in a room for 4 which isn't the end of the world. in Chamonix I was in the bottom bunk in a room for 8 and had a great time.

Hi;
I have two question for you guys;
Do we have to choose a room while we are booking for UCPA program, maybe because I didn't go further steps on booking but I thought that they can add us in a room which is for our age group.
And the secod; why the prices are different from the www.ucpa.com prices, it is like; 336euros for 18-25 ages on the page but on the action-outdoor page it is written 476 pounds! do you know whay and also why action-outdoor doesn't control our ages like ucpa.com do ?
have a nice weekend

hwwwest, ucpa direct offer a discount for 18-25. You should speak to action outdoors about this or book direct if they don't offer you the discount. (remember that action outdoors' price includes an extra night (saturday) with dinner.
As far as room allocation is concerned, if you want a guaranteed twin room (with a named room mate - you can't book a twin without naming and paying for the other party) you have to pay a supplement. You need to reserve it and pay for it when booking as there are limited rooms, otherwise you will be allocated on arrival in a room for 4. As far as age groups go, they take language as the 1st criteria i.e. putting you in with people who speak your language. After that it's age groups.
Hope that clears that up.
