Ski Packs

Skint skier wants to know if it is possible to buy a learn to ski pack from Crystal as part of a hotel package booking (in Bansko) even though I am a good intermediate skier as there is about £40 difference in the price?
I would like intermediate lessons but can't realy afford to pay the difference .
Will it be possible?

re: Ski Packs

Yes - and everyone does it so don't even know why they advertise the two packs. We all do it...

re: Ski Packs

Baz,
it has come to my Regal ears that most of the Failsworth 45 crew ( Upper Limeside Platoon ) returning to Bansko in January have once again chosen the Learn to ski pack.
As they have managed to get away with this for the last six years it would appear that you may indeed be able to get away with this also.
i cant wait for the day that the Bulgarians catch on to this though and see all the cheapskates queing to upgrade at the ski school

I see your number has increased by 5 - congratulations sire. Please do not tempt the Bulgarians as it won't be long before they catch you all out!

In the meantime happy skiing!

re: Ski Packs

the date for pre-booking ski packs appears to have passed with my tour operator, is there any other way of pre-booking? i understand that equipment hire and passes are more expensive when you get there, how much more expensive,does anyone know?

cheers

I have been getting away with the " learn to drink pack" for many a year now, but I am renowned in the Kingdom of Woodhouses as a seasoned toper.

Hoo-rah!!!

re: Ski Packs

James a lift pass will cost you about 280 Lev in resort tuition and ski hire ontop of that. Plead with your tour operator.
