It's probably about double the price - it's worth persevering with Airtours, they can't be worse than crystal / thomson at the moment.

Right now I have tickets for the wrong flight, a seat reservation in the wrong name, a letter arrived today to remind me to book my ski pack (which I've already done) - but for the Saturday departure, not Sunday... do you mean to say Airtours are worse than that???

re: Booking ski package on transfer

Are you going as part of another group who have already booked or are you just looking to book for the whole of your party??

We have pre booked with the Albena Ski School. The reason I asked the previous questions is that they obviously don't mix classes with Borosport which is the school used by the holiday companies.

They will save you money over B/S prices so if you want to know more then contact me.

When do you travel??

re: Booking ski package on transfer

They will only book ski packages though if you have booked accommodation with them. Fair enough but the have recently changed their policy which has caused some travellers concerns.
