Thredbo Releases On-Sale Dates and Pricing 2021 Season and Day Passes
Mountainwatch | News
Thredbo announced its 2021 winter offering today, including the return of season passes, Thredboland (the kids ski school program), group lessons and seasonal snowsports programs.
It marks a step back to normal operations for the resort after 2020 was impacted by a strict Covid-safe operating plan. Last year Thredbo operated at a guideline of 50% capacity and it will be operating under Covid-19 restrictions again in 2021, although at this stage no capacity percentage or restrictions on numbers has been announced.
Given the easing of restrictions in NSW today, which includes allowing 100% capacity at stadiums and theatres, you’d hope the NSW resorts will have no on-mountain capacity restrictions by the time the season kicks off in June. However, as we all know, things can change very quickly and a restriction on numbers permitted on the mountain is a real possibility
“We anticipate we will be operating under certain COVID-19 restrictions and expect demand to be high,” Stuart Diver, Thredbo General manager said. “We apologise to those whose preferred dates or experiences sell out as a result of demand and capacity limits. We encourage guests to plan their visits early, book in advance and be flexible with travel dates to avoid disappointment – particularly families and larger groups.”
Thredbo has announced a “limited number” of season passes will be on sale from March 31. Day passes, lessons and rentals will have a staggered release, based on intended travel dates.
For the first time Thredbo has three different types of season passes available:
Premium Season Pass – adults $1649; kids from $999,
Value Season Pass (excludes 26 June – 11 July school holidays) – $1479 for adults, from $899 for kids
Mid-week Value Season Pass (excludes June 26 – July 11 school holidays and weekend) $1319 for adults and $799 for kids.
Day passes are $169 for adults, up $10 from last year, and $89 for kids.
