What a WeSki trip actually includes

Every example in this section is a real package booked through WeSki. You can see exactly what the group got - hotel, flights, transfer, lift pass and extras - so you can picture your own trip before you build it.

Residence

Les Olympiades, Val Thorens

Val Thorens, France

6 adults • 2 bedrooms • 7 nights • Sat 9 Jan - Sat 16 Jan 2027

Val Thorens resort guide
Les Olympiades residence in Val Thorens, with shops at street level under the apartments

Why they picked this

Six adults splitting one apartment rather than three hotel rooms, in the middle of a resort at 2,300m where everything is walkable and the lifts start at the door. There is a supermarket on the ground floor, which matters on a self-catered week.

Val Thorens, Savoie, France

Flying from: Dublin (DUB), one stop each way

Booked: 22 Jun 2026, 6 months ahead

Apartment

Why they picked this

Two bedrooms plus a living space sleeps six, and room only let them cook some nights and go out on others. Thirty-two square metres is tight for six, but it keeps the group in one place instead of spread across a corridor.

Apartments are self-catered. Catered board types are available on hotels and aparthotels in the resort.

Flights

Why they picked this

Dublin has no direct Saturday service to the Savoie airports in January, so both legs run through a hub. An early start got them to Lyon mid-afternoon and into the apartment the same evening, and the late return left the whole Saturday morning free.

3 hold bags were added as an extra and shared across the group. Ski and board carriage is booked separately, per person.

Transfer

Why they picked this

Lyon to Val Thorens is a long valley drive that finishes with switchbacks up to 2,300m. After a connecting flight, six people with ski bags did not want to wait for a shuttle to fill, so a private van took them door to door both ways.

Ski passes

Passes were set per person - four took the local pass, two took the full Three Valleys.

Why they picked this

Val Thorens has 150 km of its own, which is a full week for most people, so four of the six stayed local. The other two wanted to ski across to Méribel and Courchevel and back in a day, which needs the wider pass.

Extras and add-ons

Why they picked this

Extras are chosen member by member. All six hired skis, boots and a helmet in resort rather than flying with their own, and three hold bags were enough for a self-catered group travelling light.
