Hi there,
 
Looking at booking a 2 week trip for 2 people to whistler next march but since the supplements for only having 2 in a party seem to be huge I’m wondering if there is a cheaper way / time to book this holiday. Ideally want somewhere close to slopes and best we’ve seen so far is £2500 from London.
 
Any ideas?

Have you just looked at packages? What about trying the tourist office / intraswest reservations direct and getting a room-only price; then trying the cheaper flights option with eg: Zoom Airlines

Hi,
 
Give Virgin hols a try, they price for 2 sharing with no supplements.

Let us know how you get on Bryan.
 
I’m really interested in the supplement situation - always find this a big problem when looking to keep the cost down and searching for apartments for 2 (applies to the Alps as well).

hi ,if you book through Ski Miquel you should get a better deal,i have not been with them for 3 or 4 years but had 2 weeks in whistler with return flights, full board( breakfast,afternoon cakes and tea,3 course meal with all wine included,all thier cooks are a la carte trained)accommadation, plus lift pass for £600.Obviously prices will have changed in the mean time but having had about four holidays with them i have no problems or reservations about recommending them.
best of luck
many regards
