-Cheap season passes on sale until 30 April–

 

 

Cold weather signals the time to purchase a Mt Ruapehu Season Pass – and there’s less than one week left to take advantage of the cheapest passes since 2006.

 

Mt Ruapehu’s Season Pass offers unlimited skiing for the entire 2009 season and costs $385 for adults (a reduction of $24 on 2008 prices) and $225 for youths aged 18 and under (a reduction of $14), during the month of April (these prices include a $10 discount for those purchased online at www.mtruapehu.com).

 

Mt Ruapehu All Lifts Day passes remain unchanged from last year’s rate of $83 for Adults, and $48 for Youth.

 

Purchasers also receive great discounts on Snow School, rentals, workshop, retail and food and beverage, valued at more than $100.

 

Mt Ruapehu marketing manager, Mike Smith says now the time to take advantage of the great savings on the season passes.

 

“This is the cheapest Mt Ruapehu Season Passes have been in three years, and we’re coming off the back of a huge 2008 season,” says Mr Smith. “It’s already quite cold on the mountain, and we’ve had snow so things are looking good so far for this year.”

 

Early-bird Season Passes can be purchased until 30 April 2009 online at www.mtruapehu.com, or by phoning 0508 Ruapehu (782 734) from 8am to 5pm, Monday to Friday.
