Have a look at Ski Beat, they do some great last minute offers if you take their flights, chalets are very comfortable and the food is great, particularly recomend Durel in Meribel - was there last week.

Interesting. Had a catastrophic trip with them three years ago, complained during the stay, on their "how was your holiday" form, and three letters subsequently, never heard a peep in return. They clearly didn't care a toss. We were in Meribel, but not the Durel.

Enough of that, I need to go pack - flying to Zurich in the morning for a weekend in Davos

Strange, this was our second year there. My only grumble would be that I paid full price, the others got a great deal. Also 8e a beer in the bars was hard to stomach.


What sort of problems did you have?

[Matt p]

Flying to geneve at 6.50am from gatwick for a weekend in la plagne.

Has anyone got an upto date snow report?

Ta very muchly

YHM. I've already overstepped the name and shame rules... we're not allowed to be truthful in public you know, unless we have something nice to say.
