Why vfill does not work inside tcolorbox? Here is my MuWE (Minimal unWorking Example)
documentclass{scrartcl}
usepackage[many]{tcolorbox}
newtcolorbox{bilety}
{ enhanced,
space to upper,
height=5cm,
%borderline={0.3mm}{0mm}{black!75, dashed},
segmentation style={black, solid, opacity=0, line width=0pt},
colback = black!5!white,
colframe = black!15!white,
sharpish corners,
}
begin{document}
begin{bilety}
some text
vfill
some other text
end{bilety}
end{document}
-------------------------PDF output is----------------------
But vskip does!
begin{bilety}
some text
vskip 3cm
some other text

it is the vertical analogue ofmbox{ahfill b}which does not stretch the box, boxing sets all glue at its natural size which is 0pt forvfillalthough since a height is specified you might have hoped the package had used the height specification on the underlying minipage/vbox in which case it would have had an effect.

In this case, it's a not a bug but a feature. The inner text box is decoupled from the fixed height setting for a number of reasons, e.g. lower box part support and breakability. Therefore, you cannot use vfill, because the inner text box has no fixed height.
But, you can use a minipage with a fixed height inside the tcolorbox. You can put this minipage into the box setting options:
documentclass{scrartcl}
usepackage[many]{tcolorbox}
newtcolorbox{bilety}
{ enhanced,
space to upper,
%height=5cm,
segmentation style={black, solid, opacity=0, line width=0pt},
colback = black!5!white,
colframe = black!15!white,
sharpish corners,
before upper={begin{minipage}[t][4cm]{linewidth}},
after upper={end{minipage}},
}
begin{document}
begin{bilety}
some text
parvfill
some other text
end{bilety}
end{document}
Update (16-Nov-2018):
Alternatively, the option text fill can be used to automatically insert a minipage with adapted fixed height:
documentclass{scrartcl}
usepackage[many]{tcolorbox}
newtcolorbox{bilety}
{ enhanced,
%space to upper,
height=5cm,
%segmentation style={black, solid, opacity=0, line width=0pt},
colback = black!5!white,
colframe = black!15!white,
sharpish corners,
text fill,
}
begin{document}
begin{bilety}
some text
parvfill
some other text
end{bilety}
end{document}

For people interested, note that when the size is already given in the box, you can set directly the good size to the minipage by using:begin{minipage}[t][tcbtextheight]{1.0linewidth}
