Half Term Ski Holiday

Next year the ski half term week will fall once again over two weeks rather than the one (12th February and 19th February 2011), as was the case this year. Normally the public schools week is different to the private schools half term break, but those that took their annual family ski week during the half term in France or parts of Switzerland, will have experienced unprecedented demand which reflected both private and public schools electing for the same half term window! Further compounding the problem was that it corresponded with the largest canton in France taking the same week, as well as regions in and around Geneva!

Fair play to most resorts and ski schools for coping very will with the half term ski demand and making this week a great success. Nevertheless, avoiding a repeat next year is of course a very welcome redress!

Ski New Year

With the start of spring, a ski New Year blog might seem strange, but it is in fact far from it. Many catered chalets have already been snapped up for the New Year ski week and few will remain by the time the summer season has caught up with us.

The New ski week is extremely popular, probably more popular than the ski half term week, and surprisingly for many, more popular than the ski Christmas chalet holiday the week before. It isn't therefore one to leave to the last minute. Luxury catered chalets always seem first to go and catered chalet owners who have availability in the last quarter know that for the New Year ski week that demand will be high and some even raise their prices at the end, rather than lowering them, with such scarce availability, and demand far out stripping supply.

So if you are looking for a catered, or a luxury catered chalet for the New Year ski, you might want to use that spring in your step in the direction of booking your ski New Year chalet!
