@greengriff, Yes indeed - tough call between P-ski and the Dolomites, if one had to be monogamous...
If only there were a few more bashed blacks (my pet whinge about the area ) |
This is why I far prefer France in general over the Dolomites. The Dolomites are bashed to death, not a challenging, unpisted black, or natur itinerary anywhere.

@karin, it used to be that at least with some tour operators (e.g. Ski Beat) that the half day extra was tagged on after the 6 days, whereas for directly purchased passes it was tagged on the beginning. Last season the passes we bought through Sunweb had the extra half day on the beginning, so things may have changed.

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

My experience with booking Val Thorens with Sunweb is that they are very flexible re lift passes
6, 7 or 8 days starting Saturday or Sunday
Local area or full area
I found that, in the case of VT the full 3v pass was such a small amount more, that it was a no brainer.

@sugarmoma666, the passes could have the extra half day tagged at either end of the holiday. If you use it after 12:30 on the first day then it is at the start otherwise the last morning. It doesn’t have to start or finish on a weekend either and is valid on any length pass greater or equal to 6 days.

 Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

@johnE, maybe they can now, but the passes Ski Beat provided when we last travelled with them were only valid on departure day. I checked very carefully and they explained that was the deal some tour ops had.
The Les Arcs ski pass sales website is now pretty clear that the half day is from 12:30 on arrival day. Do you have information to contradict this and confirm the pass can alternatively be used on departure day?

@sugarmoma666, the last morning may have been last year. I find the website so confusing that I don’t look at it or use it any more and just ask in the office. The office is only 10 minutes from my apartment and the staff are always very helpful. I’ll check next weekend when I get there. They insist that I buy my lift pass in person so I have to call in anyway.
