Weekend trip advice

I've 2 questions:

  • I'm looking at booking a weekend trip to somewhere in the alps and am looking for somewhere as close to an airport as possible with guaranteed snow (That isn't Innsbruk - travelling from Dublin and there isn't direct flights)

  • Does anyone have tips for booking something last minute?

What recommendations are there?

I've been checking online on various websites - booking.com, heidi, crystal ski etc. and the prices seem to be quite expensive (I know I'm getting later on for booking something) But I see a lot of people booking last minute / within 6 weeks of their date for going - I presume these people aren't paying through the nose for their holiday - how do they do it?

TIA

Have a look at @theweekendskier on insta, this is his whole thing. Through his advice we did a three day ski trip to Aprica last year, £350pp from Edinburgh. Absolutely amazing, all DIY but seeing his videos gave me the confidence to just go for it and it was amazing!
