If you are crossing the pond I would suggest skiing in New England or New York because it is another 3-5 hour flight to the ski areas of the western US. You need a fairly popular ski area that is not too overcrowded so I would avoid southern Vermont. Check out Attitash Sunday River Maine or Stowe Ski Resort. All three are decent size resorts with a lot of accommodations and should have a fair amount of newbies to hang with.
