Poster: A snowHead
|
I will reach the ripe old age of 75 in January and was hoping to ski in The Three Valleys for free. Can anyone confirm if they have now moved the goalposts and I will have to wait a further year. Still free in Val and Les Arc etc.

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

We spoke to an English skier on a chairlift in the 3Vs last season who told us his season pass was free as he was over 75.
Good luck with that and happy skiing for many years to home!

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

@peter w, you don't say when you are going. At Xmas/New Year, before your birthday, you will still have to pay. But for a trip starting on or after your birthday the pass will be free. You will have to show passport / other id. Not sure if you might have to attend the lift pass office in person so they can take a photo.

You'll need to Register first of course.

@ecureuil, After my birthday. My query was instigated as the 3V lift pass site states "Seniors pass 65 - 75 over 75's free". Other major french resorts quote, seniors 65 - 74, 75's and over free. I would not have thought that the 3V's were out of step with other resorts in this matter, perhaps this is just how they write their price list. Many thanks for the kind wishes.

@peter w, not sure which website you are looking at. This one http://www.s3v.com/en, which covers passes purchased in Courchevel/La Tania and Mottaret, seems clear that it is 65-74. Meribel, Val Thorens and Les Menuires have different lift companies, but I would be surprised if the age limits are different, particularly for 3V passes.
