The forecast is starting to look interesting.

A big looking weather front is coming in next week that looks like hitting all the Alps from France, through Switzerland and into Austria - even Andorra getting some.
Temperature plummetting........
Snow on the way !!!!!
Can start to get excited.

Expectations is key for me.

Used Crystal a fair bit - but would never stay in their own accomodation again.

Mark Warner were truly excellent last year and so were Total - but only when the pricing is added to the equation. And similarly Club Med - far more expensive and was it worth the extra over Ski Total????? Not sure!

But costings can be a smoke screen - twice as much doesn't necessarily give twice as good a holiday. Static overheads are similar re: travel and transport etc between the low budget and high budget operators.

And we all look for something different in a holiday - I will pay a premium for ski in/ski out, others are happy to walk or get on a bus to get to the lifts.
