Well if you really don't want to have to endure the Queens Speech on Christmas Day, skiing might just be the ideal alternative. Whilst it is a popular week, the Christmas ski week isn't as expensive as you might think and it is a chance for someone else to peel the brussels sprouts and stuff the turkey! And if you aren't convinced yet, just think 'White Christmas', the Christmas tree in the corner, the decorations in the room, and no step ladder needed, its all done for you!
And if you are worried about the snow, its generally never a problem, but just in case you can always ski Chamonix, Courchevel, Meribel, Val d'Isere, Verbier or other high altitude resorts that are as snow safe as it gets!
So if we have wet the appetite, don't forget that this year Christmas Day falls on a Saturday and catered chalets are likely to stagger the departure dates to deal with Christmas Day and New Years Day falling on the transfer day, with some operators swapping to a Sunday and others for mid week for the peak weeks before switching back to the popular Saturday to Saturday changeover.
Whatever the changeover, a ski Christmas break in our opinion is a great way to avoid Her Majesty's Voice!!
