    Hi all. Have managed to organise some annual leave from this weekend for a week, so have decided to try and pick up a ski deal.
    Am flexible as to country or resort so any suggestions would be appreciated. We are a ski beginner and a low intermediate boarder. From flicking through some sites, most of the deals remaining seem to be in andorra or italy. Can fly from Belfast as easily as Dublin. Looking to get a nice week away from all the usual stresses without it costing a fortune.

    Secondly, would appreciate if someone could let me know which web sites to check for current snow and weather conditions in the resorts. Which is most comprehensive?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    www.skiinfo.com is better for resort conditions.

    We got a good deal to livigno heading this weekend, its very cheap there, good snow (more forecast thursday/friday). Bogey is the transfer with topflight/direct ski is 4-5 hours, crystal are doing the 3 hour transfer but its more expensive to get there. hth.

    I got Mayrhofen in Austria for 350 with Crystal this weekend. They still have availability and it's one of the best resorts you will get.
