Included:
Airport transfers (if coinciding with group flights)

Not included:
Level 2 Exam Fee
The Level 2 costs approximately $545 for skiers and $480 for snowboarders and is not included in the package because the CSIA/CASI require that members sign up directly with their head office. We will advise how and when this should be done.

Travel insurance
We can advise on this when you book up.

If you don't yet own ski or snowboard equipment it tends to be cheaper to buy rather than rent. Skis, bindings, poles and ski boots range from $1000 - $2000. Snowboard, boots and bindings are slightly less.
