If we are unable to transfer you to the resort our recommended alternative is...

Train 8 days skiing!

There are three options.

1. Overnight sleeper snow train (6 couchettes per compartment) which departs London on Friday afternoon and arrives in Moutiers early Saturday morning. You normally have to change in Paris. The return journey departs Moutiers on Saturday evening and arrives back in London on Sunday morning.
2. Overnight Eurostar direct from London which departs Friday evening and arrives Saturday morning. It departs on Saturday evening arriving back in London on Sunday morning. This train has no sleeping compartments.
3. Eurostar departs London Saturday morning and arrives in Moutiers late Saturday afternoon. It departs the following Saturday morning arriving back in London on Saturday afternoon.

The great benefit from option 1 and 2 is that you are able to ski on both Saturdays allowing you 8 days skiing.
