Bulgaria Ski discussion board

this is from the official survey, but im sure Mikey will disagree dearest lift pass in Europe is Andora average lift pass in europe last season was 136 pounds, dearest resorts are USA even with weak dollar with prices upto 276 pounds, cheapest pass in europe was Romania at 86 pounds, but then again if you divide the pass by the amount of squirrels in the trees multiply it by the amount of hours the sun shone and then stuff it all up your **** youll get a 'Mikey'

Now after all that I dont see really any crappy Andoran resort on top so we can stop right there with the fact you are giving my friend.
the world is not Bulgaria you know.
In many normal resorts there are first:
-discounts for regular visitors.
-mega discounts to even FOC for elderly skiers
-child discounts
-discounts when booking family pass
and so on and so on.

That is only one side of this argument which is more that clear anyway.
The other side is the RATIO MILES OF SKI RUNS per POUNDS in Money.

Lets have a guess who the winner is in some chart like that.
Some things are obvious and facts and some are wishfull thinking and dreams.
I stick to the facts when making decision where to SKI.

If you're looking for a single adult bargain, head for Iran (HA HA)where a week's pass was only £19 at Dizin last winter.
This compares favourably with Deer Valley, Utah, where the six-day peak-season pass costs $553 (£291) this winter.
In Europe the extremes range from €53 (£3 for a week in Bjelo lasica in Croatia to €250 (£179) for a six-day Mont Blanc pass.

BUT the same rule applies do you want the LADA or the Merc.
I bet (although I never ever bet and only bcause I am 100% sure I will win it)100pounds that you are not 'dancing' with LADA or Moskwitch when in Boro.

Lets finish on a high with this quote from Mat from this forum few days ago who says:
...I happily ski the Bulgarian resorts because I live here but would never come here again if I moved away. Compared to what is available in Europe from the UK and factoring in the flight and transfer times versus the difference in quality, its a no-brainer.
Unless you're
A CHAIN SMOKING ALCOHOLIC,
in which case you'll probably be financially better off coming here.
i this says it all.
Good night
