Ski trip pricing

Also, can you make it clear for the poll whether we're supposed to be including our own spending money as well as the base cost of the trip?

I'm assuming "How much could you realistically afford to spend on an easter ski trip" isn't just "a hotel, ski hire, lift passes etc." and is, in fact, including everything.

Very interested in actually finally being able to go on the ski trip!

Destination matters when it comes to price so I highly recommend Poland. I went there before and not only are flights cheap but the accomodation and food it too.

If options are as the '12 trip, if it was made clear that you can pay in installments rather than lump sum up front that would help encourage people.

4x payments of £125 that can be spread over 3 or 4 months sounds a hell of a lot better than one payment of £500.

I beg to differ since everyone has different needs and spending habits. It would really mess the whole target group spending limit thing up if someone could afford £700, but £250 of that was spending money on gifts and clothes, whereas someone else said they could afford £450 with £350 on the trip and £100 spending.

The core price of the trip, ie without spending money would make more sense since it gives a more accurate result.

Then this all depends on what is included in the prices you've given. Self catering or all inclusive? Does it include any equipment hire? Flights and transfers? And so on...

So it's really hard to give a "how much will you spend" answer without any of this information.

If its going to be an easter ski trip realistically it shouldnt be breaking the 450-500 mark because of the late season timing, and because some like myself are probably going with others in january or early season.

Out of interest (forgive me if I missed this), but are we looking at it being 7 nights? Hopeful star rating?

Pricing above includes: Transport, accommodation (self-catered), ski/snowboard and boot hire, lift pass.

Looks like interest for a 2014 ski trip is hotting up (or should it be cooling down?) so I thought I'd setup a poll to see what scale of trip we should be looking at.

We want to build a trip that is open to as many of you as possible, which means finding the right balance between price and quality.

We already know that if we do a trip it will have to be around Easter time so that means finding somewhere high up to get the best quality of snow. Val Thorens and the 3 Valees has been mentioned a few times.

It would be great to get your thoughts on potential resorts and where your price limit is.

Please don't just put the cheapest option, we'd love to be able to organise a trip for £200 but it's not realistic. If we know what you can actually afford we can structure the best trip accordingly.

We don't make money out of ticket sales, the little commission we do earn is used to cover our costs and do things like subsidise the group meal we had at the end of the last trip.
