New for 2011 The quest to make quality improvements for the benefit of our guests never ceases at Perisher. Here are some of the 2011 initiatives… •P erisher’s MyRide lift tickets. A new dimension in lift tickets offering easier purchasing, flexibility and more time on the slopes. The MyRide system is fully integrated with an online platform allowing guests to buy products online before arriving on the mountain. Guests will be able to log on to Perisher’s MyRide Store and recharge their tickets to get “direct to lift” access. At the end of the day, log on to Perisher’s website to see which lifts you have ridden and how much vertical you have achieved. In addition to lift tickets, guests will be able to purchase a range of group lessons and hire equipment online to allow you to get onto the slopes more quickly once you arrive at the resort.
