I am looking to have a ski holiday in feb (France or Austria) without my
regular skiing partner. Can anyone advise on the best way to arrange a ski
holiday for a single person without having to pay for a double or twin room?
Any ideas welcomed
Several of the big operators have chalets with odd single rooms. I
would ring them in turn and ask what they've got.
If you book at the last minute you can often get a double for the price
of a single or very little more. I don't know if this works in France
in February.
If you don't want to do your own hacking around the operators, use a
specialist agent - Ski Solutions, Alpine Answers, whoever.
Small operators are often better than big ones, so if you've fixed on a
resort, find out what small operators it has and try them.
If you don't mind sharing a room, say so. It's relatively easy for
blokes to get shares as there's more of you.
