Thanks for all suggestions, it certainly makes sense as we are making it a different type of holiday to go further afield and to America. Will certainly investigate.

Book yourself some nice(read: business) BA seats and take the haul, you will thank Trencher and myself later.

You could even half the flight time and stop in NY/Boston for a city break on the way there/back.

There are the resorts of the Canadian Rockies too.

None of the hotels will have issues with you booking only a few days.

Have you been talking to my OH, he says exactly the same thing. I am getting more into hols now, flights are gradually getting longer, still cant stand flying but getting better.

Pablo and Trencher thanks for info, thats really what Hubby would like but I am not keen on long haul. May have overcome the flying thing a bit but not that far. Plus December is always a no-no for me, busiest month of the year at work and holidays are banned :mrgreen:

We have been planning hols for next winter because of only getting away once this winter, want to have more next winter.
My OH has said he gets a bit bored after 3-4 days in a resort. So what he would like to do is get flights probably Munich or Innsbruck, hire a car and travel around staying at several places over a 2 week period.
I say that this would not be possible I dont think there are many places to stay that would be willing to let you stay for 2-3 days at a time, only long weekends or weekly.
I would be agreeable to travelling around but I think we would have to book accomodation for a week, make it our base and travel to different resorts daily, then move further across Austria and do the same for the second week. Weekly lift passes would not be a problem as we usually buy day passes when we have decided whether we are boarding/skiing/xcountry/playing around. Any views?

Thanks for that Dids :thumbup:

Tony is this the holiday you went with Rocketski? Were they good? It would be nice to have another tried and tested TO other than the usual two.

I have also been finding other threads, not just the 'N' thread people are playing about with stars. I think some people are low starring all of some peoples's postings. If some-one had posted some-thing that is not liked they low star all of their other postings even if not related.
Thats just my opinion, and I may be wrong I am not the brightest. :lol:

Nice one Tony, glad you had a great time
