Frank Honan
Hi, I’m Frank and I love being in the Austrian mountains whatever the season. I’m a keen skier and having had many wonderful winter and summer holidays in the Austrian mountains with my wife and kids, we decided to move here and enjoy the great outdoor lifestyle. We are based in Vienna, but always head south to the slopes in the winter for skiing and in the summer to the crystal clear lakes for swimming, sailing and hiking the green meadows and forests. Austria has so much to offer for a winter break, with the amazing scenery, friendly people and great food. It’s the perfect destination to relax and I look forward to sharing my knowledge and experience with you
Abbie Cronin
Hi everyone welcome to Austria! I’m Abbie from the beautiful county Kerry so have been surrounded by mountains all my life. I only started skiing when I went to university but was soon obsessed & completed a ski season in France last year. I am delighted to get the chance to ski in Austria this year & hopefully you will love it as much as I do. As your Resort Manager, I will be happy to help make your time in Zell am See as enjoyable as possible!
Lynsey Mackay
My name is Lynsey and I have huge passion for both winter and summer sports, having worked for Topflight for over 10 years in Austria, France, Andorra and Italy. As an avid skier and snowboarder, you'll find me making the most of slopes during the winter months and in the summer I swap my skis for sandals to enjoy all that Lake Garda has to offer. I couldn’t possibly choose which season I prefer, I’ve skied since I was 5 years old and I can never get enough but there’s also something really magical about the spending the summer on Lake Garda.
Sue Katuszonek
Hi, my name is Sue and I am originally from Yorkshire. Austria is now my home and I have had the great privilege of living in the mountains for the last 16 years. I have worked for Topflight in most of their resorts and this winter I will be working as Admin support for our fantastic Austrian team and will be on duty on Saturdays at Salzburg airport. During the summer I am the Austria Resort Manager for all Topflight tours and resorts and will be based in St Johann. I wish you all a fantastic holiday and look forward to welcoming you.
