@Bergmeister, I live in Germany and cannot get any kind of credit card etc any more from the UK. I have a UK bank that I would love to change but cannot due to the regulations bought in to combat money laundering and/or terrorism. I keep my UK bank as my pension is paid into it, otherwise I'd have cut my ties many years ago!

Apparently I have a season pass for winter park, I wonder if there is any resale possible when I get back to the UK???

Just been into Les Saisies to buy mine. Also ordered a new dishwasher. So an expensive morning!

Well, got my Paradiski pass last night, with far less hassle than usual.
Previously started at the Edenski site, and always seemed to be sent on a long stressful run-around (especially when sorting pass out on last day of November . . .  )
But this year started on the skipass-laplagne site and it all went surprisingly easy.
Now just waiting for it arrive . . .

You're falling to bits old man

No warm feeling here either.....not paying for lift passes prevents this

I've potentially got 18 days' skiing this season. I think that makes buying a season pass marginally cheaper than individual passes.

You know it makes sense.

@queen bodecia,  I've got 21 or 22 in Flachau so definitely worth it for me. Order early for the discount. You have to pay an invoice and I could only see to do that with a bank transfer - if so I can do that from my austrian account if you like

The 3V season pass is 1240 euros this year. Not something I get a warm feeling about buying after I've broken into my piggy bank to pay for it.

@mountainaddict,

but there's something fantastic about skiing proper snow (albeit not too frequently or totally reliably) an hour from home
|
Actually the Tirol is just over 2 kms away from my home and the nearest decent resort maybe 35 minutes drive! But it is more reliable than the Upper Wear valley!

@holidayloverxx, thanks chick, I'll look into it and let you know. I was able to buy online the last time I bought a season pass so I'll do that if I can.

Ski Amadé season pass is €519, Salzburg Superski pass is €610, so either would save me between €70 and €100 over the cost of individual passes. I think it's worth the extra £70 for the Salzburg one, just two days out of 18 in any of those ski areas would make it worth the additional cost.

@haigie, what is worse is when you go through one of the barriers that has a screen and your face sits up there in splendid horror, lines and wrinkles,well mine does, till someone else goes through with a photo on their pass.

@Pamski, merde! 
I thought it had to be quite an official passport type picture... The Mrs got away with with a cutie picture... I look like I'm being probed!

@Samerberg Sue, I want to go and ski with my friends in Kitzbuhel one day in March also, so definitely worth getting a Salzburg pass.
Werfenweng sounds interesting!

@queen bodecia, I drove up there a couple of times but it is no longer on the Ski Amadé pass so I could not ski it, looks really nice and there are some good hotels and restaurants as well.

?! Robbery!! My Weardale (England's beautiful North Pennines) season pass has just arrived.....it's gone up to 
He would have to go to the college this year and he doesn't fancy that. Despite being still Junior age here in the UK with a December birthday he is advanced a year in France. We keep asking him but I won't force it. We did it once which is more than most folks and I'm grateful for that 
I think at his age we would be better to make a permanent move
