Thanks for your help everyone. Yes I am new to this forum, and it's awesome.
I hate travel agents, and if the airlines are taking the piss and charging the earth for flights, that will make my mind up pretty quickly. And f I'm going to get good snow in both places, brilliant.
Thanks for the links Iiyamadude.
Hi
I am heading over with a small group for 2 week's boarding from the 27th of December this year. I can't make my mind up between Niseko and Hakuba.
Hakuba seems like it will be easier to get to, cheaper and more cultural, but being the start of the season, I'm a bit worried we won't get the best snow.
Would Niseko be a much better option? And will the powder there make up for the estra time and cost of getting there?
Thanks for your help.
