Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Buying lift passes

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
Are there any ways to get discounts when buying lift passes? You can normally get some quite good deals on equipment hire by booking online in advance but I'm not aware of those sorts of deals for lift passes?

We're off to Avoriaz (PDS) in a couple of weeks. Best I can find is skiholidayextras who seem to be offering a 5% discount on the price of an area lift pass if booked online.

Worth doing or would I be better just waiting till I get there?

I don't believe Avoriaz nor PdS do advance discounts.

Note you have to collect them at the main ticket office by buying from skietcextras. Possibly more convenient to buy direct and have posted out to you? Also note multi purchase discounts on Avoriaz site.

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

Thanks for the multi purchase tip, 15 Euros saving better than nothing I guess. Shame they don't put 2 for 1 lift pass tokens on cereal boxes like the theme parks do.. Sad

They do actually, though you have to buy in something like Sept/Oct to get them and buy them online. From memory it's about 15% off.

There are also random special offers and flash sales - http://www.ski-morzine.com/offres-speciales.html

 Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Euro resorts don't really need to compete on lift passes with discounts and gimmicks they know most people will have committed to the resort when they booked accommodation so to a certain extent can name their own price (subject to the fact that people who feel ripped off won't want to come back). Quite a lot do offer discounts for Saturday day passes when discretionary local visitors can make a difference or for early or late season weeks where a cheaper pass might encourage a visit that would otherwise not happen. Best thing is to subscribe to the likes of BuyClub (Swiss groupon) & any French equivalents (maybe Lyon) and see if anything pops up if you're ready to commit over the summer.
