Flegere in May?! Are they going to turn the whole mountain around to keep the sun off it as well?

@BobinCH, all good except cable cars. And a (apparently) fine skin route up to Glacier.

@under a new name, I suppose 15€ could be seen as a definite if small improvement on the free spa day last year.
I think that they are going through something of a bereavement process coming to terms with the fact that they can no longer take the ski public for granted. Not sure if there was clear evidence of declining numbers of seasonaires and weekly visitors but is certainly felt like that last year. Wonder what next year's cash inducement will look like?

Yeah I'm gutted about the spa day, given that the spa is awesome
When I saw the email from CdMB I was quite excited by all the glitz and "super special discount" claptrap, until I saw the price...
I actually had to go and check to make sure it was any cheaper than last year.

Pretty shocking story on Chamonix Facebook today about a random attack by locals on a seasonaire. Hope it's an isolated incident.

@fixx, not sure I can comment. General opinion from the commercials I know is that Brexshit is crap and the Anglo trade is well welcomed.
You out this season? We are now resident...

@under a new name, yep i can't comment either.
I will indeed be out - definitely all of Dec and Jan, not working. May be doing a new job from start of Feb which will involve some time in SkiLocker and a bit of travelling, but we'll see! I'm looking forward to at least a couple of months off anyway
I'll hopefully see you at some point!

Erm, is the free spa day back?! It's currently listed as a benefit this year.
Or did I just misunderstand before and it was never actually removed?

Are the prices up for 1st time season passes for unlimited pass?
And would anybody recommend having the annual over season pass, does it include extra benefits usually?
Going for most of the season jan-mid march

Not out yet as far as I can see.
As for annual vs season, it varies each year. I know previously I always went for a season pass, as the extra cost for an annual pass wasn't worth it for me. Now the annual pass is lower in price for previous holders I get it.
Details should be out very soon - hopefully!
Edit: you can see the details of last years pricing Annual vs Season here - but benefits of each not listed https://www.chamonix.net/english/lift-systems/lift-passes/season-lift-passes

@mike1993, Annual gets you 6 days in Verbier for free. Season means you get a 50% discount on them.

Whilst talking about passes; I'm going to be getting a two week pass and see that a photo is required. Should I come armed with a passport photo type mug shot or is it all done digitally in situ? Tried looking on the Web site but no joy.

Ok thank you for that, do you know if any pass gives you unlimited access to Richard bozon sports centre? I'm sure I read this somewhere but can't seem to find it.

@esaw1, I think you can set up an online account and upload the photos to that - that’s definitely how it works for season passes. There’s usually a reasonable discount for buying a pass online a few days in advance.
@mike1993, the daily/weekly ski passes give free sports centre access but not the season ones. I think there’s a separate season (or maybe monthly) pass for the sports centre.

Just bought our annual passes. 2 kids 2 adults, e50 cheaper than last year. First time prices have fallen (that I can recall!) in over a decade.

They are definitely including a day at the spa and a free day pass for a friend again, as long as you spend over €400 on MBU season or annual.
Must get round to actually using the spa day this year...

@snowdave, you mean you weren't one of just about everyone who tipped up at the spa on the last day of validity and trashed their stocks of prosecco?

If there's free wine, maybe the spa should be a venue for a snowheads meet...?

@fixx, @snowdave, it was hilarious. I think I saw just about everyone I know in town. The place was heaving. All there for free drinks and snacks at 18h30. Poor staff quite bewildered on the last night of their season.

@Gustavobs, ah, yes, I see what you mean. Not entirely sure how (indeed if) they police it... might be worth a shot.

I'd thought that had history of purchase by name/pass number but it's first time I buy not sure how it works.
