Anyone booked for next season yet?

Booked for Ste Foy. Still worried about lack of runs however...

Yep, eight of us are going to Soll, Austria in Jan '10. Haven't been on a group ski trip before so should be interesting! :-)

If you are really worried about the lack of motorway mileage skiing, your nearest hop in points are Tignes Les Brevieres, for Espace Killy, and Le Pre, Villaroger, for Paradiski.

Ste Foy is known as a favourite destination for locals who wish to avoid the crowds )

8 of us got a chalet booked in Alpe d'Huez 2nd week in Jan 2010, but nothing else confirmed yet. Rocket Ski have pulled out of Schladming and Folgarida, so thats 2 of my planned trips up the swanny.
I think I am going to wait and get something right at the last minute once I know what the snow is like around Europe when I take the time off.
Still very keen on Solden and Ischgl but in the current climate, they might have to wait a year or 2.

Tony - Schladming and Folgarida are still on the Equity Ski website - could you not switch your Rocket Ski plans through Equity or won't they let you do that? Great shame if not as we have had some fantastic ski hols in both those resorts.
Dare I ask about the job situation? Forgive me if you have talked about it somewhere else in the forum, but I am out of touch due to recent house move.

24 of us booked to go to Arabba in March. Still considering other options like Obergurgl at the end of November (if it's open?) for four nights and/or somewhere for new year...

Unfortunately they still show on the website but they no longer go to these resorts. In fact, they are now very limited to what they can offer, as they have focused on the school group market this coming season.
As for work, its been a nightmare last 15 months or so, having been made redundant a month before Xmas, the company I subsequently joined went into administration at the end of May, so no one got paid and I had to find another job. Luckily, I worked 2 weeks with my new employer before I went to Greece, and its a case of fingers crossed that it works out with the new company, although the print industry in general is on its knees so who knows, but thanks for asking.
