J2Ski Holiday 2014

School holidays are usually more expensive :(

Looking at your prices for 2013 Ally from the Bonjour chalet, it seems that the prices are fairly stable during January and then go up first week in February and then on up again.

So perhaps the last week in January which is 25/26 or first week in February which is 1/2 in 2014 might be a possibility?

What does everyone else think?

Felthorpe,
I think that Nelly can't go during the whole of January :cry:

It is very hard on those that can only go during school holidays, and I don't like excluding anyone, but as you say prices are far higher during the school holidays.

Here are some more chalet prices, with Ski Olympic for the chalet Graciosa in La Plagne, for 2013. For this chalet the first week in February 2013 seems to be the same price as January. I'm not recommending this chalet, I'm just using it as an example. The prices include catered accommodation, flights and transfers, and ski hosting.

A friend of mine has been with Ski Olympic and she thinks they're very good. This is a ski in/ski out chalet hotel above Plagne Centre. It's more functional than pretty, and it sleeps 46 people. It does Sunday to Sunday booking.

I reckon the prices are around £100 p.p. higher than we're paying for the Bonjour-Bonjour chalet in Tignes Les Brevieres, but I haven't phoned them yet to see how much group discount they offer.

personally I think you should get a consensus as to area before you start looking at particular chalets...its a bit previous ..who knows what the prices will be it two years time

I think Ally was just using some guides for next season to look at a trend of pricing over the season and in particular the ramp up in prices during school holidays.

Daved,
I'm looking at dates - not chalets - not really :D

I just thought if we checked a couple of the chalets out we could see how the prices change throughout the season, and get an idea of when we want to go.

All we need really, early on, is the date we want to go.

So - are there are particular months you can't go, for any reason?

Old Andy - you beat me to it :D

That's exactly what I was looking at :thumbup:

looking at those dates/prices i would say the last cheep week in Jan/early Feb would be most suitable for me.
That would give me a early season hol and a late season hol with the family with J2 mid way between.
