Flexible pricing model
How does the flexible pricing model work?
Our pricing model is flexible: an algorithm continuously recalculates ticket prices and updates them every night. The current price is based on several factors, including season (peak/off-peak), day of the week, booking date, current demand and, at a certain point, the weather forecast. Important: prices do not change within a single day.
The earlier you book, the more budget-friendly your skiing holiday will be. This allows us to ensure that skiing remains accessible to as many people as possible.
Pricing is also based on expected demand. Our prices start at just CHF 53.- per day – and never exceed the set maximum of CHF 76.-.
What are the advantages of the flexible pricing model?
-
Attractive prices: The earlier you book, the cheaper your ticket will be; the price will not drop any further. You can save money by skiing outside of peak season or on days when demand is lower.
-
Flexibility: Ticket prices vary depending on demand. Plan your skiing days strategically and save money. Bonus tip: The cheaper the price, the more space you'll have on the slopes!
-
Better guest experience: Variable prices allow us to better manage guest flows and ensure a more enjoyable skiing experience for everyone.
