My understanding is that 'ski hosting' as part of a pre-organised 'package holiday' have gone (in Europe).

Some tour operators are (apparently) helping to co-ordinate 'social skiing'. I think the principle is that they will group guests together (who have similar agendas) and help them plan a ski itinerary for the day.

I'm going with Mark Warner (tomorrow :D ) and hoping that they are doing this.

Ouch, not much sympathy being expressed in the comments after that article. :shock:

On a global level things certainly get much much much worse than a night in Chambery airport. But on a 'holiday level', my recollection is that Chambery is best described as a cattle-market for Charter flights to be churned through - not an ideal place to get stuck and best avoided altogether if possible.

We live our lives on many different levels.

The winter tyres are for going to La Plagne with the family - first time driving in Alps.
(But I've got a Val D'Isere "Dads' trip" (flying) before that.)

Winter Tyres - Watch This - Buy Some!

Yes Sir :!:

Ordered a set of Dunlop SP-Winter-Sport-4D today. Due to be delivered in 6 days.

I've caught it too, but I'm getting counselling.... Mrs Smartski ( :evil: ) smacks me around the head every time I click on 'favourites'.

Well, the term is "climate change" and it's happening indeed even if slowly (luckily for us).

Ah, yes they may call it Climate change now, but 20 years ago it was def global warming. -)

as long as its white and downhill i'll make the most of it

You are so right.

Mrs Smartski is saying I'm spending longer looking at webcams and forecasts than I will spend actually skiing when I do go.

Time to stop worrying. There's nothing I can do about it.
