Crystal Ski

Be aware !
Just got back from a week in Zell Am Zee
Last day of skiing, que'd for 40 minutes for gondola only to be thrown off
as lift pass had expired the day before.
Crystal rep couldn't care less.
I had to purchase one out of my own pocket then haggle with her that night
to get the money back.

very very poor

Er, did the pass not have the date on it?

I'd agree that Crystal are pants - but surely anyone with any sense
would check the expiry date on some thing as expensive?

If it's anything like the passes in Lech/St Anton, they don't print the date
on them (RFID)..... yep - the same happened to me in Lech!

They do, however, print the date on the cards in Val Gardena - I guess this
is because their cards are one shot and the cards in Lech are reusable
(deposit).

It was a re-useable card with the date printed on it.
In 17 years this has never happened to me and with all of the excitement of
the first day, I never even looked at the date

You mean Crystal gave you a day old card? That's pretty **** poor if that's
the case.

Crystal are dreadful. Never met anyone who worked for them who says
otherwise. Not that I'm bitter about the two holidays of mine that they
screwed up before I wised up and went elsewhere!

Mind you it could be worse. We had a week with 1st Choice and the food was
so poor that one night comprised chicken drummers, followed by 2 scoops of
ice cream. AND the wine was so poor that everybody in our group (40+) bought
their own, only to be asked for 5e corkage!! Three guesses as to where they
were told to stick the corks!

We had a good week with Crystal a few years ago.
There was transfer chaos on the way out, but Crystal didn't contribute
to it.
I'd rate Total Ski lower.

Really? I've got nothing but praise for them (travelled with them 4 times).
