I have been going to Courchevel every year for the last 12 years. I go at the end of December/ very early January. Often there is very little snow on 1650 and medium snow on 1850. This creates over-crowding on the limited slopes open at that time of the year. Snow is coming later and later in the season - ...?climate change. If you are going to Courchevel, I suggest you go mid-January onwards. If you go earlier, there is likely to be limited number of slopes open; lots of slopes but half of them mud and grass at the end of December. Val Thorens for me this winter.
