The age old chat of expensive rail fares. But honestly would you not rather drink French wine, or dine in Alpine ski chalets than drink a pint of warm brew in a Yorkshire pub. Both areas have a language barrier but with a cheaper Euro exchange to me it's more appealing going to the mountains.
Its cheaper to fly to Geneva TWICE than train to Yorkshire ONE-WAY and after doing a quick google search myself its factually correct. Ski chalet in Morzine vs Cottage in dales. I know the wine is better...

Linked here with EasyJet or Swiss and I see the benefit straight away. What will National Rail do with local services to rectify this issue becoming even more of an issue in the future? Surely it hurts the local economy no matter what improvements need to be made to lines..We love Harrogate and think it's a great example of a middle ground UK destination but over £100 for a ONE-WAY train ticket is silly...... have a look at some cheaper return flights to Morzine below to see just how cheap it is to stay with in Luxury with Mountain Mavericks or L'Aubergade...
...So.... the moral of the story is that travelling to Morzine is unbelievably cheap compared to UK travel.
