What's the latest you'd go?

Hey guys,
I'm planning my trips to Bansko for this year - and I'm just wondering if I can fit in a cheeky weekend very late in the season.
So, bearing in mind that if I can't ski then it's not an absolute disaster (I'll happily spend a weekend enjoying the local "culture" Booze), but I'd like there to be a more than 50/50 chance of at least some lifts being open, then when do you think is the latest you'd go?
I don't want to wait until nearer the time to book as flights will be much more ...

I don't want to wait until nearer the time to book as flights will be much more expensive, and as I said I'm not THAT bothered if I can't ski.

So - I'm guessing early April is fine. What about mid/late April? Early May even? 15 May according to the site but I have serious doubts about that. Can someone with experience of the late season give me an opinion?
Thanks very much,
Matt
