REGULATIONS – WINTER SEASON 2023/2024
The purchase and the consequent possession of the ticket involves the knowledge and the complete acceptance of these ticket Regulations, shown at all cashiers and on the website www.skipasslivigno.com
The starting and end date of the season is established by the Association according to the weather conditions, to the ski run status and their snow making, to the technical demands of lifts. Of course any kind of ticket expires at the end of the season for which it has been issued.
The operation times of lifts are established by the Companies and broadcast through communication posted at lift stations. The opening times may be modified during the day due to technical, service or safety demands, or to circumstances beyond anyone's control, nevertheless it doesn't represent a reason to claim the reimbursement of the lift pass.
All tickets issued are valid in the opening days and according to the operation times as quoted in point 2) and are subject to the “ Travellers' Instructions” settled by each Company. Livigno and Alta Valtellina season passes are valid from the opening day till the closure of the skiing season as fixed by the Association. Lombardia season tickets are valid from 2 December 2023 till 1 May 2024.
The ticket rules refer explicitly to the public price lists which are an essential part of these Regulations.
The ski pass represents the only suitable document to prove the conclusion of the contract between the lift company and the user who will have to pay the amount equivalent to the route covered, if found without the ticket by the personnel in charge. The purchase of the ticket entitles the owner to use the lifts for the sections specified during the days of validity and according to the turnout of travellers at the lift departure. The customer must verify upon delivery that the lift pass meets all his requirements. It is not possible to change or extend the length of the ticket after its activation. As for the multi-day passes, starting from 6 days, it is possible to buy a one-day extension at a favourable price.
In order to receive some kinds of ski pass (seniors, juniors, children, youth, etc.) it is necessary to produce valid identification cards (self-certifications are not accepted), and, if requested, to allow the photo shot of the uncovered face so that the entitled person is easily recognizable. By purchasing the lift pass, before the issuing of the ticket, the user must advise the cashier about one's right to the discount by showing the documents proving the qualification for the preferential treatment. It's also required the presence of the recipient of the discount. The above-mentioned documentation can also be requested by the personnel in charge with the lift control or by supervisors of Skipass Association.
After the first use the travel documents can in no way be replaced and/or refunded. The partial refund of the ticket is possible only in case of a ski accident upon presentation of a medical report by the Emergency Room which proves the inability to go on skiing. The lift pass is refunded from the day after its return, according to a specific table developed by the Association. The season cards can be reimbursed by calculating the weeks passed from the first usage, deducting 30% for the first week and the following ones in a proportional way. It's not possible to refund the ticket to relatives or companions of the injured person. In all other cases, including personal reasons, and/or illness, no refund is granted.
For the electronic device (keycard) on which the lift pass is stored the user has to pay an additional deposit of 5 Eur, which can be refunded by returning the device at any skipass office and lift station within the end of the season for which it has been issued. Only the undamaged, functioning and well-kept keycards can be refunded. If not returned, the device can be used by the customer for the following seasons, except in cases of technological adjustments which can make it unusable.
The device or ticket are to be shown at any requirements by the personnel in charge with the control (Police, Carabinieri, Companies' supervisors, Skipass Association employees and lift operators) who must be able to verify the validity and the regular possession. Throughout the control the same papers as those produced for reduced ticket issuance can be requested in order to prove the necessary qualifications.
The ski pass is strictly personal: the borrowing, the temporary transfer, or any misuse or abuse, entails the deactivation of the ticket that can be cancelled upon payment of the expected fine, from 50,00€ to 400,00€ according to the seriousness of the violation; after continued infractions the ticket will be immediately and definitively deactivated with the demand for damages and the possible legal protection during the hearings, in accordance with the law in force and D.P.R. 11/07/1980, no. 753.
