Hi there,
Some vouchers say "learn to ski",it is dipens on with travel company you have booked with.Most of the instructors and
even supervisors dont care,but there are a few with a lot of
years in the ski industry and perfect english who could send
you to the office to pay the diffrence.

Hi there,
Learn to ski pack meant,lessons for begginers.That includes how to do snow plough turn and skiing on green and blue runs only.If anybody book learn to ski pack,but joint in an intermediate class is a cheat

re: Ski Packs

Hi,t,have skied every run and avalanche area many times,so guess i am more intermediate/advanced,not trying to cheat anyone in Bulgaria,just thought the tour operaters may just pocket the extra.Anyway i'm not a cheat so i'll just book the full pack as usual,thanks,Rigs Booze
