A total disgrace today starting late, told there would be runs opening, which was a lie. Extremely unprofessional staff. Tow kept breaking down and they over sold tickets for the number of uplift tows. They appealed for support recently but the best option would be if they went into receivership and got taken over by a proper management team. By 12.30 some skiers only had one run and the staff had no idea how to arrange queues. Lecht, you should have refunded your customers after a disgraceful day with old poorly maintained equipment.
