I'm sure Verbier's marketing team can spin that positively... "our ski areas so big you need TWO lift passes!" 8)

Don't know where you're flying from but EasyJet have got plenty of mid-week flights that'll come in around £100 return through most of August; don't think that's too bad?

Les Deux Alpes or Tignes, via Geneva or Lyon?

Saas Fee or Zermatt via Geneva or Zurich?

Any good?

Security crackdown to affect all air passengers

Heads-up for anyone flying to The Alps (or to/from the States, or from UK on various routes)...

TravelMole wrote:A new security crackdown announced yesterday by the Government means that all passengers flying into or out of the UK must ensure all electronic devices being carried in their hand luggage are sufficiently charged to be turned on.

Any devices that can't be turned on might be confiscated, the Department for Transport announced yesterday.

It said there would be checks "on some route into or out of the UK", but refused to disclose which routes were involved for security reasons.

Passengers flying from the UK to the United States had already been advised of the new rule, which is in line with new security measured introduced in the US in response to a terror threat.

US officials ordered some overseas airports with direct flights to the US, including Heathrow and Manchester, to step up screening of electronic devices, such as mobile phones, laptops shavers and cameras.

I'm a tad excited about this one!

Full trip report required for that one Andy! Although I'll probably have to ban you shortly afterwards on account of dribbling, whimpering jealousy! 8)

I'd imagine they'll be leaving their lovely bright Ski Club jackets at the bottom of the hill too from now on... 8)
