ski package booking

tried booking a ski package for my daughter aged 6. She is too young too book through Thomson Ski school, got to be 7, and as she can ski, ski kindergarten is of no use.

The latest e-mail informs me:

Unfortunately we do not offer ski services only.
We offer full packages with accommodation, sorry.

somewhat different to the website.

Now going on a ski holiday where my daughter can't ski!!

Any ideas, or suggestions to resolve this ridiculous matter

Hi
I haven't been to the resort yet, and this to will be my first time skiing, but on this web page http://www.bulgariaski.com/pamporovo/skischool.shtml http://www.bulgariaski.com/pamporovo/skischool.shtml

Guys I've been there a few times and am sure that the best and the cheapest way to hire equipment is face to face talk with instructors. For them there are no limitations or rules as long as it is safe. So for your little daughter you can arrange something when you arrive there. Dont worry there is always equipment for you!

re: ski package booking

thanks for the advice, I think the last posting seems a good enough idea, if not it's only money, less for dad's vodka! Confused

We are in a similar situation as our daughter will be 7 in March. Last year both children went to kindergarten but I would prefer ski school this year and for them to be together. We asked about this when we were there last year and understood that as she has skiied before she would be able to go into one of the younger ski school classes. In fact there was at least one child who was not challenged enough in kindergarten and went to join her siblings on day 2, she was just 6.

From what we understood when we were there ski school is very flexible and takes children on ability as much as anything else.

Good Luck!
