another good exercise for the foot and ankle is to try and work up to 1 minute each leg of standing on a Bosu on one foot...good for the lower calves and muscles in the instep

My vote would be , that as first timers , I would go with an operator. Takes the hassle out of doing something for the first time...why reinvent the wheel .. Thompson/Crystal fly from cardif to morzine and there might be special offers as the crunch bites

My new skis came with a slip for storage that goes in-between the skis...... and they are still propped in the corner where i stroke them! :oops:

Paso Tonale?

Never mind you will soon be skiing :D

Your hold luggage allowance is 15 or 20kg according to airline. You then pay a set fee for ski carriage, which allows you ONE SKI OR BOARD BAG onto the flight. I cannot recall there ever being a weight limit on ski bags, but I may be wrong.

Looked on the Jet2 website ..they do stipulate 20kg for the ski bag ...

"Golf Bags and Ski Equipment

Golf bags and ski equipment charges are 22.50GBP/ 33EUR/ 56CHF/ 1125CZK/ 140PLN per flight for each item up to 20kg but you can save £5 by pre-booking online »"

mind you I only checked 'cos of you lot on here talking about it :lol:

last year I flew with Jet2 to salzburg and had no trouble with the skis or the boots which I took as hand luggage..There is this little box thing by check in and if they fitted in that it was ok

This year I have bought a new double ski bag and am hoping to pack all in there The boots weigh 5 kg and the skis(190s) and bag weigh 10kg...so I have some spare as the allowance is 20kg

No 2 is it courmayuer?
