Cairngorm to opt out of season pass discount scheme
Date Posted: 10.39hrs on Mon 2 Nov 20
It seems Cairngorm is opting out of the long standing 30% discount season pass scheme running between the scottish resorts,

Can anyone confirm?

Yes this is confirmed, CML will not honour the agreements in place, like they have also removed themselves from the shared national reporting system.

This is a really stupid move particularly under the circumstances with reliance on low level surface tows for access one again on CairnGorm. The 30% off day tickets elsewhere give some reassurance to CairnGorm pass holders they would still get some benefits from their pass even if CairnGorm deemed it not worth operating mid or upper uplift without the Carpark Tow or Ridge Poma for access.

Load both barrels, aim at both feet and fire!

Stephen, It's a French system called Trinum that Glencoe, Nevis, Glenshee and the Lecht use which automatically updates to sites like ski scotland and winterhighland.

thanks Andy. Got to say, I fail to see any logic in this decision by Cairngorm.
