Has the Grinch stolen your Christmas already?
The Christmas holidays are still 39 days away – but many people have found that the grinch has spread his disappointment for the holidays – sold out accommodations. A couple of the contributing factors for this is early season snow and the overwhelming demand promoted early bookings for this time period. If you have been grinched for the Christmas time period, consider the following alternatives to still enjoy a ski vacation this year.
1. Christmas is the most expensive time of year for lodging, lift tickets and ski rental. Choosing alternative dates can save you over $700.00! For example: Come for Thanksgiving for as low as $853.00 or MLK weekend in January for $981.00 or the week prior to Christmas for $1055.00. (All of these prices are based on 2 adults and 2 children in a 1 bedroom condo for 4 nights, 3 days of lift tickets and ski rental.)
2. Time periods that are sold out or will be sold out, usually mean no discounts or free night specials available to you – even at the last minute.
3. Popular time periods can lead to over-crowding on the slopes with long lift lines, longer wait times for the shuttle bus, dining and activities.
4. Transportation to and from your destination can test anyone’s patience – crowded airports, long check-in lines, lost luggage and possible weather delays.
