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 :-)

Hi, I may be in the lucky position to take a 2nd weeks Ski hols in 2013 with my wife and 8 year old son. We normally go with Crystal to Flaine due to the kids care options they have, prepared to not have this option as it will be our 2nd week this season, going to La Plagne 2nd Feb. We are tied to going during school hols which is 23 March or 30th March departure weekends. We have previously skied Flaine the last week of March which was fine, although runs back to the resort were a bit slushy in the afternoons. I am happy to wait for a deal with a T/O, so I am looking for some input on where is OK for those dates, my wife and I are happy on Blue and Reds, my son has skied 4 weeks in ski school with ESF so far, and we will be putting him into lessons in the mornings for the week. We dont enjoy the whole flying and transfer buses bit but as we are in the NW driving is not really an option. Happy to consider half board or Self cater options, although HB preferable as it gives the chance of my son meeting other kids in the hotel.
Apres ski is not a major thing for us, nice meal and a few drinks is fine. I am quite interested in the Austrian kids ski school which covers AM and PM, and would look at Andorra - Soldeu, Italy for food, and France for the high resorts. Not interested in Bulgaria or Slovenia.
Hope this makes some sort of sense and look forward to seeing peoples thoughts and recommendations,

, Les Deux Alpes is always reliable at Easter, I'll be there for the 7th year running. Reasonably priced by large French resort standards.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?
