According to the Tiroler Zeitung, the cable car industry in Tirol is facing increasing pressure as local tariffs come under scrutiny. Legal threats from the Association for Consumer Information (VKI) and cease-and-desist orders from the Federal Office of Metrology and Surveying have put these regional discounts in the spotlight, as they are seen as discriminatory and not in line with EU regulations.
With the Freizeitticket Tirol and Regio Card set to reveal their pricing for the upcoming season, the public eagerly awaits details. New rules will limit discount options, and prices are expected to rise by up to 30% after the pre-sale period. Cable car spokesperson Reinhard Klier has emphasized that while no immediate increase in daily ski pass prices is expected, the discount systems will change.
The industry now looks to political leaders to negotiate potential exemptions within EU law to preserve these local benefits.
