J2Ski Holiday 11th January 2015 Sauze d'Oulx

I rang Crystal just now, and they have 3 rooms left in the Sauze hotel for 11th January, for 6 people. Their prices are as follows:

Half-board hotel including flights (from Gatwick) and transfers = £439 p.p.

Improvers ski pack (suitable for everyone above beginner level), which includes area lift pass, skis and boots, and lessons = £349

Total = £788

Or, as separate items:
Area lift pass = £170
Boots = £29
Standard skis = £50
Intermediate skis = £76
Advanced skis = £90
6 days of morning lessons 3 hours each = £127
3 days of morning lessons 3 hours each = £89

And the offer of 2 for 1 on ski hire only applies if both people are hiring the same level of ski (like if they're both hiring standard skis).

So if, for example, 2 people want to hire intermediate skis but they have their own boots and they don't want lessons, then the total would be:
£439 + £170 + £76/2 = £647 per person.

They do flights from other airports but at a supplement.

83 sleeps and counting ...... :thumbup:

Can't wait :D

There are 26 people now booked on this holiday: 22 in our group booking and 4 with Crystal.
If anyone else wants to come with us they're more than welcome, and there are still rooms available in the Sauze hotel with Crystal :)

And I suppose that if the Sauze Hotel gets booked people could always book elsewhere and still ski and apres with us

Yes, that's quite right :)

And if anyone just happens to be in Sauze that week anyway, they're welcome to meet up with us on the slopes or during the evening and say 'Hi'.

It's a pleasure to have Bald-eagleman in the group with us this year - he's already organized a fancy dress evening! I will have to remember to pack something for it :)

I am organizing a mini-bus taxi to bring us back from a day ski-ing in Montgenevre, which is in France and at the other end of the ski area from Sauze. One of the many advantages of doing things in a group is that we can get cheaper rates for things like taxis :)

Why don't you ski back? We did it there and back in a day this year. Easy enough

Hi Icy,
Most of us could ski there and back in a day, but we want time to ski the slopes above Montgenevre as well. Plus, if we have a taxi to take us back we won't have to worry about missing the last lift home, as there's no public bus between Montgenevre and Sauze.
The taxi is only going to cost us 10 euros each anyway, so it's cheap enough :)
And it means those of us who haven't had a lot of experience boarding or ski-ing and would struggle to get there and back in one day, can come as well :)
We only get one day there included in our lift pass so we might as well make the most of it :)
