Thanks, but they only operate at weekends, I am travelling mid-week.

Single person looking for a way to get from Tignes to Geneva airport (1 way) next week. Can't hire a car as it's one way, and all the (many) transfer quotes I've found online are for a private vehicle and cost £350+.

Surely there must be some sort of coach/shuttle bus option?

Any help greatly appreciated!

I'm a single person looking for a 4-5 night ski trip end of March/first weekend of April, and am finding it impossible to get transfers anywhere which don't cost about 4 times the flight price. Would consider car hire but the parking is so pricey it doesn't seem any better.

I am looking at any (reasonably high altitude) ski area, leaving from all London airports. There seem to be plenty of good deals on week-long packages but I can only take 3 days off work.

Any tips on how to find something? I don't have a particular budget in mind, just don't want to pay 75% of the trip cost in transfers!

Looking for somewhere to hire basic snowboard+boots for a few days (maybe 4 days) in La Tania. Have tried a couple of places online but they only seem to offer high-end stuff when you actually go to book it. I'm a blue/easy red-runner (fairly new to boarding) and will only be using the hire stuff a couple of hours a day as I will mostly be skiing, so looking for something as economical as possible (given it's 3 Valleys...).

Thanks for any tips.

Is there (historically) much to choose between the first and last weeks of February in terms of weather, snow conditions, amount of daylight in Whistler?

Thanks for any advice.
