Due to lack of the white stuff - had been keeping an eye on the webcams and it all looks very green still - maybe my pre christmas holiday to 3V was not such a good idea this year - we shall see.....

Pre Christmas skiing full stop is looking like a bad idea this season.

So will TO's have to bus people to resorts where skiing is possible, or will they try to offer alternative resorts altogether? (Or will they just say TOUGH!!!)
By the way I don't feel in any way smug - just relieved - that as last minute bookers who usually go before Christmas, we haven't actually booked anything yet. I really feel for those of you who have to take time off work and for whom this is the one and only chance to ski this season and booked some time ago.

Interesting point. My guess is they will use the small print in their T&Cs that says they do not guarantee snow, and if only one lift is open you can't claim for a lift pass refund.jastem wrote:So will TO's have to bus people to resorts where skiing is possible, or will they try to offer alternative resorts altogether?

In the current financial climate, I cant see people being bussed around at added cost as a result of the weather being as reliable as a Greek politician

There's still plenty of time for the snow to arrive.
