If you have a smartphone, most UK operators now do a deal on roaming data for travelling. Smartphone should be OK for just email and FB.
Skiing Mt Blanc

I just had a quick google, and whilst I will not post direct links, I see that it is possible to hire "Altitude Tents" for what I would not call an excessive amount.

Have you considered the use of one of these before you go?

Edit. Doh! Just noticed Adders suggested something similar. However if you hire one, you could sleep in it for a week or so to acclimatise.
Dongles

If you are only looking to get a one month dongle, why not look into getting one from a telecoms supplier in the country you are going to. You will not get hit with the roaming charges then.

However, subject to the Hotel charges, that would probably be your best option.

Finally, I was pleasantly surprised to find free wifi zones in Kitzbuhel earlier this season, you should check where you are going to see if any are available. Some bars use it to draw customers.

Not sure TBH - I'll check... but you might as well enter anyway; you could give it to a friend if you win!


Ooo, go on rub it in. You know all his friends let him down and would not go skiing again.

:( Same as all of mine. Buggers all think working and paying bills is more important. I am now considering tagging on to our school ski trip at Easter, even if it is to a low down resort with just 4 runs :shock:

You may well be surprised at how little they seem to need to maintain that status )
