How do we calculate the reimbursement amount of a skipass?

 

If a 5-day skipass at the cost of CHF 200.00 has not been used for 3 days, we will refund 3/5 of the amount, which is CHF 120.00. For seasonal skipass, we do the same calculation, and the insurance cover is between December 1 and March 31. (i.e., for an accident that occurs December 31, we reimburse 90/121 of the skipass price).
