Don't want to spend the earth. Accomodation or whole caboodle anyone? If you don't have the time to search around yourself I'd give Alpine Answers a call (don't have the number but a quick Google will do the trick). Tell them just what you said here and they'll get back to you with a few options. They can look at hotels and scheduled flights as well as the regular package deals. Might be too late now (17:08 on a Sunday), and they'll probably have theor phones ringing off the hook on Monday morning so you may need a bit of patience. They may have an answering machine so leave them a message, at least that way they'll be on to it first thing. It seems that with the recent dumps there are very few last minute bargains to be had in the resorts you mentioned - a friend of mine booked a trip last Monday departing Saturday (i.e. yesterday) and couldn't find anywhere offering last minute bargains. His criteria were pretty much the same as yours (and 90% of the skiing public I guess), he found a trip without too much trouble - to Val d'Isere - but the TO wasn't giving any discounts. I'm not a big fan of packages in general, nothing against them really I just prefer to DIY it, but for a quick solution for a 'normal'[*] trip such as yours they would seem to be the answer here. Steve [*] By 'normal' I mean 2 people, 7 nights, departing on a weekend to a major resort. Any deviation from this criteria and it's often much cheaper and easier to plan it yourself. |
