Ski Pass

You will be able to pre-order your lift passes once you have made your holiday booking. Ski passes must be pre-booked at least 2 weeks prior to departure. If you booked your holiday direct with Ski Beat you will have a booking reference beginning with DS - please speak to your party leader who can give you access to the online system. If you booked your holiday via a travel agent, please call us on 01243 788 487 to pre-book ski pack items, as the online facility is not available for Travel agent bookings.

2012 Lift pass price summary

Lift Pass Special Offers

We will deliver pre-booked lift passes to your chalet, ready for your first day's skiing. Alternatively you can book your lift passes via the Ski Beat Resort Staff during the transfer to resort.

Certain lift passes, eg "Seniors", "Walkers" and passes for longer durations ( 7/8 day or 2 weeks) can only be booked via the Ski Beat Resort Manager on arrival.

Free lift passes are available for children under 5yrs in Val d'Isere, La Rosiere, La Tania & Meribel, and for children under 6yrs in La Plagne & Les Arcs.

Beginners should check with ski school for advice on which type of lift pass to buy, as in some resorts beginners may not require a lift pass for the first day, or may only require a local area pass.

Photos: all of our resorts are now using the hands-free chip card, which means you can keep your lift pass safe in a pocket when going through the lift turnstyles. Most passes do not require photos - there are however a few exceptions, so please bring a photo if you require one of the following:  

La Tania & Meribel - free passes. Les Arcs - Lift passes for +72yrs. Val d'Isere - passes valid for 8 or more days. La Rosiere - free child passes

Skiing on arrival / departure days

Passengers on our Gatwick-Geneva flight (to Val d'Isere) may be able to ski in the afternoon of arrival day. Passengers on our Manchester-Grenoble flight may be able to ski on the final morning. Please remember that transfer times may vary due to flight delays and adverse weather, and you also need to factor in the time required for check-in, or getting through passport control and collecting your luggage - we cannot refund any part of a lift pass if not used. It is therefore most advisable to purchase a 6 day pass for your main stay, and then buy a day / half day pass in resort if you find you have enough time to make use of it.

If you are making your own travel arrangements you may be able to ski on the day of arrival and the day of departure. In this case, your host will advise you where to store luggage and will provide a room for changing. Please note the chalets are not accessible before 9am on day of arrival or after 4pm on day of departure for independent travellers.
