Hi,

I'm thinking about doing a second ski trip if I can. It will depend solely on cost. I've found a very cheap deal on accomodation now need to price travel. Can anyone advise me on the cheapest way to get to Val Cenis....please?!!! :-D

Can you get cheap flights to Chambery or Grenoble?

Hi RossF,

Sleazy jet prices not out yet, checked other cheap airlines and they are a bit pricey. I'm thinking about going by train and need some help with transfers.

Here is some infomation on travelling to Val cenis seems like the TGV goes direct to Modane and then it's 24k's to go.

Thanks for that Ian. :thumbup:

I checked out the snow coach today and for the dates I want to go it's £144 return pp. That is the cheapest way I've found to get there so far (apart from drive and I'm too scared to do that (what with the snow and all!). Will be checking out snow train prices tomorrow - need to call them as it hasn't been possible to check online - it's three different bookings one to Paris one to Modane and then a bus/taxi/coach on to Val Cenis...unless I'm being really thick. :)

Where are you trying to go from ? I'd be surprised if Easyjet prices not out for anytime this coming season - unless of course it's right at the end of the season your looking at and their flights may have stopped.

Be interesting to see what you find as I've been considering a short break here after chatting to afew folks with places there at the Metro snow show.

Hi Dave,

yes you're right, i am planning a trip for W/B April 4th. Do you think there will be no Easy jet Flights then? i'm going from London.

I too got the idea of this place at the show. A friend has found flights for £129 but i don't know who with and where from (they live in Bristol). I'm going to check out snow train prices today. I'll keep you posted.

Just been reading the Snowcoach brochure, they have properties in Val Cenis.

They offer travel only from £109 return so the brochure says - ski kit goes free.

Might be worth a look at if you have no joy on the flights.
