Good Etna budgeting is not about finding the cheapest option. It is about protecting the choices that preserve safety, logistics, and quality of experience.

Spend-first priorities

Reliable access and transfer chain
Guide depth where terrain risk increases
Basic gear quality (especially footwear and wind layer)

Save-first zones

Redundant premium add-ons
Souvenir-heavy impulse spending
Overbooked extras with low incremental value

Priority map

Line item	Priority
Core access	High
