Do Not Book A Beginners Package If You Want To Use ALL Lifts... This Is New For This Season!!!
An Upgrade Will Cost You 76 Lev... There Is Only A Difference Of £10 If Booked In The UK.
Don't Get Caught Out!!! |

We got caught out with that one as well Spartacus, but with a lot of luck when I upgraded Georgias they put an extra 3 days on it  which was pretty handy as we was staying for 10 days, |

Quite surprised by this post. The three lifts that do not form part of the full lift pass lead to slopes that are not suitable for beginners. It also states in tour operator brochures that yhe learn to ski pack is for complete beginners and does state that it is a limited pass.
Unless your intention is to try and save a few kid and try to be smart by booking this. |

Hi Billy... Neilson changed the wording in brochure and online only this week and by the end of the week some beginners could do the slope's they are trying to stop them on... The upgrade is for 6 days... Much cheaper in the uk |

Totally agree - for example it doesn't cover Markudjik 2 (4 man) but by the end of the week, most beginners can do 'the loop' ie: bypassing Marky 1 draglift, down to Marky 2 and then across the top back down the Suhar - in fact most instructors take them that way to avoid the Marky 1 drag.... |

I think its The Following Lifts..
4 Man In front of Rila
4 Man Yaterbrets
4 Man Marky 2...
Just dont get a beginners package even if you are a beginner... its only an extra £10 in the UK |

Just booked some full 6 day beginners ski packs with Hunters.
Does anyone know if they use full passes or the restricted passes for their beginners? |

I have booked beginner package for my daughter and intermediate for my husband, is it difficult for them meet together during lunch if pass lift restricted.
do I need to pay ski holiday extra £10 to upgrade before we go.
my daughter is first time skiing, how not book beginner, how to fit in intermediate. |

My Advise Is For Everyone To Book An Intermediate Package... It Only Coists An Extra £10 In The UK Before You Go...
Some Beginners Will Want To Use The Excluded Lifts Towards The End Of The Week For Definate!!!
The Intermediate Package Will Not Effect What Ability Group You Are Put In...
Im Not Sure About Hunters Ski School... Kas & Bobby can help You With That One!! |

If they are total beginners they should be ok with what is available to them in their first week.

Just been on the phone to Inghams, one of our party has booked a begginers learn to ski package but because we had booked from the preview book that didn't state the restrictions they have upgraded his lift pass to all lifts with no charge might be worth looking into for anyone else who booked early enough. |

Thanks 4 the idea David...just off the phone with Neilson and theyve upgraded the two of our group that were on beginner packs for free...they've been upgraded 2 the intermidiate pack but still get beginner lessons but have a full lift pass instead  ...well worth giving them a ring |

The two beginner packs we booked were for complete beginners...and even though there now on the intermidiate pack they still get beginner lessons...so can't see there being a problem...apparently they only changed the wording last week...so all u need do is tell them that when you booked u were told the pass covers all lifts... |

Rang Crystal this morning - apparently their 'system' won't allow you to upgrade and still do the beginners lessons!! I would have to purchase individual upgraded lift passes for the whole week! They suggested I email the rep in resort and see what they think is best!!! |

Hi Tania, Have you heard back from the reps in resort at all?
Were in the same situation, even though were beginners would be nice to have access to all lifts. I havent spoke to Crystal yet, but may speak to reps in resort if thats the best way.

Hi Sara - yes one fo the reps got back to me very promptly and we can upgrade for 76 levs in resort. The rep can help sort this for us. Its a shame they 'can't' do what other companies have but I'm not overly bothered if we have to do it this way. We will wait and see how we get on with our lessons as we may not need to upgrade ( well I probably won't but hubby may)   |
