The problem, I've experienced, were mainly caused by tour operators, dropping on Mass people whose flights were not due for several hours. Thus causing cramped conditions with no place to sit or to get anything to eat. But its a short transfer to some of the resorts

If the larger Tour Operators were to use any imagination (or gave a damn), they could split their charter flights over Saturday and Sunday which would ease congestion in Chambery on a Saturday considerably :thumbup: .

They should have enough clout in the resorts to get enough hotels, chalets, etc, to opt for either a Saturday or Sunday changeover rather than the current rigid Saturday only changeover. Obviously, such an option would have to be applied for the full season - otherwise you would end up with lots of 6 or 8 day trips, though maybe that would not be a bad thing.

Generally, the Italian hotels operate on a Sunday changeover and the TOs cope with this with mainly Sunday charters to Italy :shock: .
