Appalling customer service at ticketing today . Waiting in line about 1 hour. Poor customer service at Ski hire in Happy Valley. No customers for snowboards and 3 people standing around at that desk while people queuing to hire skis. Very, very slack service for a place charging top dollar. Tried to book online tonight to make tomorrow easier but only no ability to use online for under-fives. Come on, Whakapapa, get with it.
