Assumptions
How the estimates work
- Trip length is defined in nights; ski days must fit within the overall trip duration.
- Costs are estimated using typical per-person averages, with group-level adjustments where appropriate.
- Accommodation costs are based on common mid-market options for the selected accommodation type, adjusted for room sharing, group size, region, and season.
- Lift pass and equipment rental costs use region-based daily rates, with multi-day discounts and seasonal adjustments applied.
- Food costs vary by accommodation type, ski versus non-ski days, region, and season, reflecting differences between self-catering and dining out.
- Optional extras (such as insurance and incidental expenses) are charged per ski day per person and vary by selected level.
- Transport costs include a one-off main travel component (flight or car) and a local transport component; selecting “None” excludes both.
- Region and season selections affect prices across categories, with stronger effects on accommodation, lift-related costs, and food.
- All results are estimates intended for planning and comparison, not exact quotes from specific providers.
