We can&#8217;t see the name La Tania disappearing anytime soon &#8211; the 1550 and 1650 designations are still widely in use for Courchevel Village and Moriond.<\/p>\n<p>Financially these changes probably do make sense so hopefully a new lift or escalator\/walk way up the chalets area can now be financed and the main centre of La Tania &#038; the arrival area at The Montana can have a much needed refurb.<\/p>\n<p>The further benefits of one commune and joint publicity, tourist info, major developments, ski area improvements and belonging to &#8220;Courchevel&#8221; one of the premier ski resort names in the world are all fairly obvious too. Inter-village transport links will improve too and maybe La Tania will have full free bus links at the beginning and end of the ski season and through the Summer too. <\/p>\n<p>Of course no one with lose their job and there will just be additional bureaucracy available and two town halls etc etc. Further information in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.latania.co.uk\/photos\/2016Summer\/info\/infoStBonPerriere.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Mairie Newsletter<\/a> (in French).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La Perri\u00e8re and Saint-Bon merge in to &#8220;Courchevel&#8221; &#8211; La Tania becomes part of Courchevel It may have been an April Fool by us a few years ago saying La Tania was being renamed Courchevel but it is getting nearer (sort of)&#8230; The two local councils (La Tania belongs to La Perri\u00e8re) have approved the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9981,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9977","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.latania.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/infoStBonPerriere.jpg?fit=793%2C530&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":false,"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.latania.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9977","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.latania.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.latania.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.latania.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.latania.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9977"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.latania.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9977\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9980,"href":"https:\/\/www.latania.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9977\/revisions\/9980"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.latania.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9981"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.latania.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9977"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.latania.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9977"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.latania.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9977"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
