Amaru Posted April 29, 2005 Author Share Posted April 29, 2005 Well the package above only costs in transport and accomodation... lift ticket and ski hire are on top (obviously if you got your own stuff, you dont need to hire). Plusses are you dont have to worry bout driving/parking/chains etc. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/71890-not-really-a-cruise-more-of-an-event/page/2/#findComment-1326050 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amaru Posted May 15, 2005 Author Share Posted May 15, 2005 Ok so to get this kinda back on track, I have talked to some places and basically the deal Andrew (SkyGTRline) found is looking the best. So... those who want to come, when do you want to go and for how many days? Im thinking around mid August and for the 3 days during the week. Let me know, and we'll work something out and get booking.

GTS_DUY Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 i'm up for it. nick, is that at the kookaburra lodge? three days sounds good. the last time i went last year i did a three day/two night trip to jindy, accomodation was $155, lift pass for two days was $166, board hire for two days was about $90. i should also add, two day lift passes cost a fair whack, so the day trips you can do with murrays are cheap as...

Amaru Posted May 16, 2005 Author Share Posted May 16, 2005 Ok heres my rough cost estimation... 3 Day Midweek Madness Package includes - 3 nights accomodation at the Snowy Valley Resort, Jindabyne - Transport from Canberra to Snowy Valley Resort by luxury coach - Shuttle bus transport up and down the mountain each day (includes National Park entry fees) - Complimentary 3 course dinner at the Lakeview Bistro - Hot breakfast each morning - Party night is Wednesday Night in Jindabyne Busses depart Canberra at 10:30PM Monday night, returning late Thursday night. Cost: $289 per person EXTRA COSTS YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY Skis stocks and boots hire -- $55 Snowboard and boots hire -- $69 Hire clothes (jacket, pants etc) -- check out some ski and camping shops for good prices 3 day lift pass / with skitube -- $248 / $302 Spending money each day for food and drinks at Perisher -- $25 So for a grand total of around $562 plus your ski/board/clothes hire. Then add on some extra cash for going out in Jindabyne, id say $650-700 would be suitable for most people.

GTS_DUY Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 $650-700 if there were 5 or more ppl interested, i would be highly inclined to go visit the flight centre, and ask em what they can do in term of group tickets to new zealand, with that amount of ppl, u can get cheap as chips accomodation. snow in NZ rips the shit out of perisher in a good year, and for $100-200 more, why not eh?
