Local Holidays???

Hi all hoping for some advice.

Been to bansko before and looking to go again after having a great time there especially as never a queue for the gondola. However I am keen to avoid clashing with any national/school holidays and wondered if anyone knows if there is any on the week of 24th February 2013 (When the English one ends) as the story's of the gondola queue do not sound nice!

Thanks in advance.

I don't know but the holidays in BG this time were directly following the UK half term so it would be a possibility.
The UK half term seems to be an odd one for 2013 - ours (oop here in the North of the UK) commences Sat 9th Feb yet others that I have spoken to elsewhere in the country are Sat 16th Feb so we may have a 2 week peak.

Does that mean the travel companies get two weeks to rip people off at half term,,, there should be a law against the huge price rises,,,

re: Local Holidays???

yeah those 2 weeks snow white mentioned are the most expensive so hopefully it will all be finished round the 24th as cant seem to find any bg website with term dates on! Thanks for the replies
