    Great news about the scan Woo.

    Quote didn't work, so reply to Adam:

    That would be total price, so package (flights, accommodation, food, lift pass, ski hire) but it's not the where... it's the when!

    Austria is the preference this year.

    If you think you can find something cheaper, please please be my guest!
