Travel Arrangements |
| |
try to keep
transfer times from the airport as short as possible |
| |
the snow train
can be a fun way to travel, but take refreshments with you |
| |
don't travel by
car unless the children are older, or you take many breaks |
| |
|
|
Accommodation |
| |
chalets and
apartments are best |
| |
either hire the
entire chalet, or choose one marked as for families |
| |
apartments are
cheaper but not as convenient. someone must still cook! |
| |
choose a
specialist family hotel |
| |
|
|
Clothing |
| |
helmets are
recommended for small children |
| |
goggles should
be big enough to fit over the helmet |
| |
a one-piece ski
suit is the most convenient |
| |
gloves should
always be worn |
| |
wear many
layers of clothing- vests, thermal pants |
| |
have access to
drinks- altitude is very dehydrating |
| |
|
|
Suncream |
| |
wear suncream,
even on cloudy days |
| |
|
|
Ski Schools |
| |
if you find
that the instructor speaks little english, ask for your child to
be moved to another class. its your right. |
| |
check the
times- they may differ from your own! |
| |
some schools
will organise lunch for your child- find out |
