 Poster: A snowHead
|
|
Is the week commencing Monday 19th December considered Christmas week by European resorts? Due to the way Christmas falls this year (Sunday) I wondered how this would affect prices etc if one was thinking of a cheeky pre-christmas trip for a few days once the kids have finished school.

I've booked 15th - 26th December. Flights were cheap. If you're thinking of a package they'll get you with high season prices regardless. You can save loads by booking independant accommodation and budget flights.

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

telford_mike, where are you going ?
Surprisingly for those of us in the UK Christmas week is not especially celebrated in the alps, New Year on the other hand is a completely different matter, so long as you are not staying beyond the 26th or 27th of December you should be able to find a good deal

D G Orf, You're right there - Christmas week here is almost considered off season!! hence the reason its far nicer to come for Chrimbo than New Year - pistes are much quieter too.
If anyones interested in ADH I should be able to help you with a good deal on accommodation!

Sounds like a plan with no obvious flaws David  - we're booked for McMillan week then a couple of weeks in March, and will hopefully sneak another week in somewhere!
