Thanks everyone, pleased it came across as light hearted because while I am p off, as said these things happen. The deal was to Passo Tonale and came out at at £425 HB at the Panorama. The agent says the prices have gone up due to a surge of enquiries although they say there is still a lot of availability for that week so maybe it will come down.
Used to do this a few years ago when I used to go in a group, but it works out more expensive when your on your own. Although if nothing comes up in the next few day I might try and go after Easter Holidays and as the travel agents don't do ski holidays, it will have to be a DIY job. Any ideas anyone, not Switzerland not that rich!
Don't understand why her parents are not allowing her to have a free fun holiday, especially as they are not going away this year. |

I try to get away three or better still four times a year but not being a Euro Lottery winner I have to work and keep a eye on costs.
Every year it seems to get more difficult. Everyone I know is married, worse they have children and even worse are unhappily divorced. This year my mum was ill, my employer has been awkward and the price of ski holidays seems to be really high. So been Livigno in January and desperately looking for at least another week. Came across a holiday at a bargain price on Thursday. Hotel has good reviews, do not need a second mortgage for lift passes, snow good, rang the agent up, is it really that price, yes book it now he told me. Yet I needed to get time off work! Rang my boss, he was not in, left begging messages on his home answer machine, pleading messages, cried, offered him sex but he did not reply, but his wife cried too. Got a email from him this morning, yes you can go. Interestingly he declined an offer to come with me, as did all my friends, dad, sister, sister said I could not take my 9 year old niece. Rang the nice man up at the travel agent who told me the holiday is now sold out at that price and would be almost double. |

Looked at St Johann and Mayrhofen in Austria Selva, Passo Tonale, Sestriere in Italy among others. Been meaning to go to Sweden but living near Manchester there seems little choice |

Why is it so difficult to get ski lift prices?
Looking at going away next month and yet again I am spending for ever trying to find the prices of lifts. Anyone know of a site that gives this info It is probably somewhere on this site an I can't find it. |

Hi to everyone, not posted this season yet, I guess because I have not been skiing this year :(
Need some help though Friends are going to Livigno and booked a hotel near ski lift 10. I was initially unable to go but now I can (I think) the hotel is booked up, so looking for a nearby alternative. anyone tell me what hotels are nearby? I found a map of hotels last year on line but hours spent looking for it have been wasted. Searches like Livigno hotels ski lift 10 have failed too. Any help please? Hope I spelt Livigno right Thanks Julie |

The only ski resort I have been to that has both a HFC and Macs is Zakopane |

Yes some of the lower slopes were lacking snow although 18 was fine in the morning.
The caroselo 3000 was fine even lower down and the new one looked OK too. The slopes on the other side of Livigno were good too, especially during the week when it wasn't as busy as the weekend |
