Oh dear, Not looking good for Plovdiv tomorrow, BBC forcast says FOG for tomorrow, We had better brace ourselves for a very long coach journey. Oh well, as long as we get to Pamps eventually. We will all have to sheer each other up. Very Happy

re: 1 Day to go...!!!! :)

i have just finished skiing today. It was the best conditions i have skied this season and ive been here all season. Always more snow makes it better, but it was very good.

If you are diverted to greece and bused up to sofia, make sure you get off at SIMITLI it will save you 6 hrs travelling.(to sofia and back)

I do not think you will bbe though.

Hi, I have been reading this discussion board for a while, and Im now really concerned about the fog in Plovdiv. How bad does it have to be for them to divert you? Do they try Sofia first or is it Greece all the way?!
We are flying at 3pm tomorrow so hopefully it may clear by then, fingers crossed! Very Happy

Looking at the forecast for Plovdiv and now thinking of getting extra duty free for the 10 bus ride from Greece, oh well, things could be worse.
