 Poster: A snowHead
|
snowHead stevew first broke the news last April that the Trois Vallees ski area of France is to have hands-free liftpasses from this winter. Further details have now emerged, and a report on www.ropeways.net makes the following points:
- The new lift pass has been named the ‘P@S’ which stands for Prêt à Skier, or ready-to-ski. It is sturdier than the old lift passes, looks like a credit card with a built-in chip, and it can be recharged. This P@S will cost 3€ extra.
- Liftpasses will be available either in person, by post, or on-line. No need to visit the ticket desk. The first lift taken will automatically validate the pass. Most passes will not require a photo.
- Passes will be insured by the lift company and can be replaced, with minor conditions.
- The option to buy passes via a tour operator rep remains.
Check the ropeways.net report for further information.

About bluddy time. Sorry, I meant congratulations 3V on yr first hands free card, well done. (About bluddy time).
Have been able to buy old-style 3V tx on-line for some time now, and get 'em delivered to your accomodation, so nothing new there. And not having to have a photo will save money. Nice.
Would be nicer if they bothered to impliment a system as advanced as those that track your progress around the network and provide a print-out on demand. But this is the 3V, after all... they've only just gotten around to hands-free....
And what will the lifties do for a job now??????

Is there any indication yet whether or not Swatch Access will be usable?
