 Poster: A snowHead
|
Anybody have any info on this?
What age qualifies as a child? I've been quoted €860 for two adult and three kids aged 12, 10 and 8.
If you've been this season what did you pay and are there any deals to be had? I've booked independent, not through a TO.
Cheers.

Which resort? And for the full Milky Way pass or what? The resorts have different adult/child age limits.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

We're in Sauze. Not bothered about exploring the whole Milky Way, plenty for us in just SAuze.

this is the official link. James has the same prices at Sauze online.
Looks like no reductions for kids over 7?
That seems mean to me and makes skiing the via lattea not as cheap as we thought for a family.
A while ago when I looked there seemed to be an under 15 lift pass but I cant find it now. (only for montgenevre)
Can anyone else be more useful than me as I havent been yet either!

You'll need to Register first of course.

That's what I was hoping to find out!! I'm sure someone here will have the definitive answer.
Starting adult prices 10 seems a bit steep. Even my 8 year old is charged €140 as the child price only goes up to age 7!!!

Hi we are off to Montgenevre on Saturday
On the Montgenvre website link enclosed they do family packs which seem cheaper and child classes as Under 15 you have to bring proof of age

Yes, thank you Lizzard, I haven't found the sno link before BUT
It is not at all clear if there is a ticket available for a child older than 7. This is what we want to find out.
The sauze online link says there is NOT but I guess I just cant believe it having skiied in austria- (kids half price!) and france (big reduction)

@nem, isn't it? 
Seems to me discount-eligible kids are aget 7-11 inclusive, take photo ID and buy an adult pass for the same period.

When we skied in Italy last year (not sauze) we didn't get a discount for our 8 yo only our 4 yo. Same this year (Sestriere) from what I understand my now 9 yo will pay the same as my husband and I with only the now 5 yo being entitle to the child price.
If you do find another discounted child prices for the older children I'd love to know.

You know it makes sense.

Best I can find is E180 Adult (kids 10+) and kids born in 2006 (i.e. 8 year olds!) E140. Not sure what happens to those already 9??
Anyway, it's a dear do if you're going as a family of five which we are! £944 for 5 x 6 day passes and ski hire!! I'll just sell a kidney. Nobody ever said skiing was cheap.....

Otherwise you'll just go on seeing the one name:

@Markmcn, you'd pay 231€/185€ here, if it's any consolation.
French resorts (and lots of other French tourist attractions etc) usually do 'famille nombreuse' reductions for prolific breeders, by which they mean any family with three or more children. Don't know what it's like in Italy, but it could be worth asking at the ticket office if they do family passes - the prices listed for 2Alpes above would drop to 211€/165€ at family rate, for example.
