Hi, probably the same date just need to confirm hol's with work. My only concern is it doesnt seem the highest of resorts and just wondered how "snow sure" it is.

Hi, We have never skiied Austria before and are looking at Kitzbuhel for an early Feb holiday, has anybody been or able to offer any advice on the area. I am comfortable on Red runs and my wife more at home on a blue run. Any help appreciated thanks guys.

John,sadly it sounds like youve been had. Ive heard of this before nothing to do with ski hols just unscrupulous (not sure of spelling ) operators. And the reason why I will never holiday in France !!! > I know it can happen anywhere but my personal view of the French has just been justified by you.Sorry if its controversial but its my opinion.put simply I just dont like them !!!!!

Marshian,stick at it is the right advice. I like yourself had never had skis on my feet until last Nov when I had a full day lesson at the Chill factor. To say I was a slow learner is generous !! I was hopeless couldnt turn and got very frustrated. We have recently returned from our first proper ski holiday with a weeks ski school while we were there. I can now ski Reds and the snow plough has given way to parallel skiing. I probably dont have the best style in the world but when all the learning starts to fall into place the satisfaction and thrill of the slopes is all that counts. YOU WILL get there with a little patience and a lot of practice. Get yourself to a snow dome and enjoy the holiday then like the rest of us you WILL be hooked.Best of luck and enjoy the learning its fun and very worth it.
