Two red/black and two blue/easy red skiers, trying find a resort to suit us all. Not too long for transfers or lots of nightlife. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Very vague requirements! Where have you been before and liked / not liked? Style of resort town? Prefer ski in ski out?

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

We've been to Neiderau(really liked), Borovets (hated) and Passo Tonale twice. Ski in/out would be great after passo a traditional village setting would be good, probably looking at a chalet and not using a TO.

Maddie240, Morzine-Avoriaz in the PDS has everything.
But we are biased just a little
The site below has loads of info.

I believe there are airports at Courchevel, St. Moritz and Aspen so these will have very short transfers. All have lots of gentle skiing and are traditional villages, though I am not sure just what traditional means in the context of skiing resorts.

Maddie240, anywhere in the Grand Massif or the Portes du Soleil could suit you. Have a look at Les Carroz - it is a lovely French village with excellent skiing, just an hour from Geneva airport. There is a choice of a long blue between the trees or a fun red run back to the village.

Maddie240, loads of choices within 60 minutes of Salzburg Airport with very few roads likely to be closed due to heavy snow! And there is nothing to beat the Apres scene in Austria if that is also part of the package you are looking for.

What about Flaine? Not expensive, good easy blues and greens and some excellent excellent reds.
Alpe d'huez would be another suggestion - certainly great to learn to ski in and the longest black in europe to play with.

Anywhere in the Grand Massif... Les Carroz/Samoens are my picks

Yes. Simply book a flight on an Airbus A320 to Courchevel.
