I was there a couple of weeks ago with First Choice.They are still with the Blues, you'll be happy to know, Crystal and Thomson with the Reds.


This is correct - anybody who travels abroad should open a Nationwide flexaccount even if they only use it for their hols. No charges or fees and they don't weight the exchange rate - it's by far the best value for your spending money. Plus it costs no more to withdraw cash daily as opposed to taking the lot with you which means you don't have to worry about mis-placing that £500 you'd be carrying.
Bon. Allez!

Weird - the thing I clicked to quote was meant to be about Nationwide. Still though - wise words from Col. I doff my cap!

Should have quoted - I think the Nationwide flex account is possibly the only card account which doesn't charge a fee for ATM cash withdrawals when abroad. Plus being a building society you may get a slightly better rate than the banks.
Bon. Allez!

Hi Barnsey & Kookie

We will also be arriving in Niederau on 7th. 2 kids in tow (the 3rd will be in Kitzbuhel with her school)

We also need ski school for them - will probably bump into you
mum works too hard to pay for the ski trips!

Does anybody know how big the ski groups are ? Going on 14th feb - half-term. Red school I think - Inghams

We have a 9 year old. Will she be in a childrens group or mixed with adults.

Oh and what types of lifts are there in Niederau

Thanks

Ones that take you to the top of ski slopes.....

Seriously, the nursery slopes are served by button lifts and T bars, there is a 6 man gondola and a 4 man chair that take you to the highest points, and there are also T bars around. The lift system is adequate for a resort of its size.

Me1st,

The kids will be in kids ski school. The red ski school (1st Schischule Wildschonau) is brilliant, we've had lessons with them 4 times now. The youngest we've had in our adult class was 14/15yr olds.
