Plan Your Ski Adventure
This area is where you will find everything you need for planning your Ski Adventure.
Check Bus Reservation
Check the bus reservation lists to make sure your name should appear. Otherwise, if you've change your plans without notifying us, you will be charged for your bus reservation. If you're not on the list, we won't know to look for you and the likelihood is high that space won't be available.
Check-In Procedures
Minimize confusion on the first day by downloading and printing the Check-in Procedures page.
These instructions will guide you through the check-in process for your room, ski rentals and ski passes.
​
PLEASE NOTE: The last paragraph, "Reception," has not been updated. Payment is due 30 days before arrival.
Where Do I Eat?
Download and print the Schladming map to have with you on the first two days of the Ski Adventure. Everything on the map is within a 5-minute walking distance.
The map helps get your bearings the first 24 hours, and provides restaurant suggestions for Saturday dinner and breakfast and lunch on Sunday.
Airline Swag Needed!
If you can bring napkins, cups and any fun decorations and/or snacks from your airline, we use these items at dinner time each night. Delta Dale humorously announces the "official sponsor" of the meal, which creates a fun way to recognize the airlines that are represented at the FCAP Ski Adventure.
If you can bring items, please let Delta Dale know by clicking the button below so he can plan accordingly. We would need 100 of everything if you can bring items.

Is there alternate transportation to get to and from Schladming?Yes indeed. TRAIN Train service (oebb.at) is available directly from Schladming. It's affordable, convenient, and provides breath-taking views. Currently, the first train on Saturday leaves at 5:06 AM and arrives at the Munich Airport at 9:37 AM. AIRPORT TRANSFER Should you need to catch an earlier flight, airport transfer service is available from Schladming. These companies have nice vans that typically transport up to five (5) people and their luggage to Salzburg for approximately €200, and to Munich or Vienna for approximately €500. You could arrange a group and split the cost of the taxi. Service to Graz and Linz airports are available as well. You can pay online when you book via credit card, or you can pay in cash (Euro) after your ride. The drivers speak English well, and are delightful to talk to. If you decide to use one of these services, it is highly recommended to reserve early. Here are a couple of local airport transfer services. Taxi Maxi taxi-maxi.at (links directly to online booking form in English) WM Taxi Schladming wm-taxi-schladming.at (links directly to online booking form in German/English) Blacklane Another option is Blacklane, an executive black car service that operates like Uber and Lyft (download app and create a free membership), with the exception that the costs are all-inclusive and include gratuities. Town cars, executive SUVs/vans, and limos are typically the three category offerings. Any transportation involving trains and airport transfers, along with formation of travel groups must be arranged on your own.

-
How much do ski passes cost?It depends on how many days you plan to ski. If you plan to ski every day, you'll want a 6-day ski pass. You can see Planai's current ski pass prices at https://www.planai.at/en/tickets-and-prices/winter-prices/multi-day-tickets.

Should I get a ski pass even though I don't plan to ski?It is recommended. The views are spectacular, and there are many fun huts (restaurants and pubs) up on the mountain. You may also enjoy rodeln (Austrian sledding) down a 5-mile run from the top of the mountain for which a ski pass gets you on the lift (all you'd need is to rent a sled for about €8). With a ski pass, you can also use Schladming's bus system.
