The end of an era? A stealth change is making chalet ski holidays more expensive

A "stealth change" suggests that something underhand is going on. This is not the case - it is simply the authorities in France and Austria ensuring that (mainly) young people are no longer exploited by the tour operators. While it may be a pain to see the cost of these types of holidays increasing or not even been made available, it really is only fair that staff should be fairly treated.

Don't forget, the tour operators are generally very large multi-nationals who are in it solely for profit. These are the people that load up a €300 surcharge per person on families that are stuck to the mid-term break for their ski holiday :twisted:

What Wanderer says. Authorities merely trying to stop employees from being exploited (even if they agree to being exploited)
