Does it still make more sense to wait for last min deal next march? Going in a group of six next march/April.
Advice appreciated!

Book now if you can afford it. The offers late are all based on 1 room or last 2 seats on a flight.

We had settled on first week of April as schools not out that early next easter but unis are... Then I realized what if it's not heavy snow that late like this year? Or is there guaranteed snow at high altitudes in some places even in April?
Alternative would be to go first week in jan but I have heard it can be serious cold then.....
What would you do given the choice?
Would like to book ASAP really.

Same flights 1 week earlier then family of 4 = £489
Looked at other airlines into Geneva, Munich etc.. same story.
If you are booking outside school term times great bargin flights, if you have to go school term times it means that driving could be the best option, so I think I will be Driving again next year!
Only possibility will be Easyjet when they release their schedule later in the year
Looked at package deals, same problem over £1000 per head without lift passes, ski's, lessons etc... This year did the lot for £3700, eating out every night and lunchtime, passes, lessons, car hire, flights.

Is there a set date for them to come on line - like a certain number of months prior to the flight date, or something? It would be nice to be able to catch them before prices start climbing.
