The start of France's 24-25 season is just a month away with the Chamonix Valley, Tignes and Val Thorens currently expected to be opening first for the final week of November.
Tignes has officially given up on September and October opening but has announced plans for its opening weekend from 23rd of November.
A day's lift pass for the opening weekend on 23 and 24 November will cost just €30 and for the rest of the week from 25 - 29 November skiers there remains a heavy discount to €39 day. There are also opening weekend packages with two night's accommodation and a 2 day lift pass from €120 (£100).
From Saturday 30 November Tignes and neighbouring Val d'Isère will both be open for the season with daily lift passes reduced to €61 until 20 December.
Visitors to Tignes this winter will find a a new 6-seater chair lift 'Le Marais' waiting for them. The quieter, faster and more energy-efficient lift will be transporting up to 2,020 skiers and boarders to the summit of Aiguille Percée in the Tignes sector every hour.
There's also a new mountain restaurant up at 2,431 m, 'Le Palet'. The latest offspring from the Bouvier family and the sister to the Panoramic restaurant, it's accessible via the Tichot ski lift.
"The slope-side new cool canteen will be the lively place to stop for a drink and some tasty food. In the afternoon live music will be entertaining the crowds and the perfect fun stop in between skiing and snowboarding," a resort spokesperson says.
