Who runs it
The Flying Aperitivo is run by the operator of the Mont de Sëura chairlift at Monte Pana, whose details appear above. By booking you enter into a contract with that company.
What the price covers
The price covers your seat on the chairlift up and back down, one drink of your choice — Hugo, Veneziano or alcohol-free — and the tray of South Tyrolean antipasti. There is nothing to pay at the top.
Children under 14 pay the reduced rate, receive an alcohol-free drink and take a seat exactly as adults do.
Booking and payment
Bookings are taken online on this website only. The price is calculated by our server from the rates in force at the time of booking.
Your seat is held for a limited time while you complete payment. The booking is confirmed only once payment succeeds: from that moment you receive your ticket and booking code by email.
The ticket is valid for the date and time shown and for the number of people booked.
When registration closes
Registration for each date closes at 20:00 on the evening before. After that no further online bookings are possible, because the kitchen prepares trays for the exact number of guests and the lift is organised accordingly.
Turning up at the valley station without a booking gives no right to a seat.
Bad weather: the two possible outcomes
The Flying Aperitivo takes place outdoors and depends on the weather. The decision is emailed to everyone who has booked as soon as it is made; if the weather turns suddenly, that can be shortly before departure.
- It goes ahead: the evening runs as planned, meeting at 18:00 at the valley station.
- Cancelled: if the weather does not allow us to fly, the evening does not take place and we refund the full amount to the same payment method used to book.
Cancelling and the right of withdrawal
The Flying Aperitivo is a leisure service supplied on a specific date: under Art. 59(1)(n) of the Italian Consumer Code the fourteen-day right of withdrawal does not apply.
Cancelling is free until 10 days before departure: you can do it yourself from the booking page linked in your confirmation email, and we refund the full amount to the payment method you used. From then until 18:00 on the day before departure the amount is no longer refunded: if you cancel from the booking page in that period, you receive straight away by email a voucher for the same experience, valid for 24 months from the cancelled date. After 18:00 on the day before, or if you do not turn up, the full amount is due and nothing is refunded. If we cancel the evening ourselves, you always get the full amount back.
Until 18:00 on the day before departure you can also ask us to move your booking to another date in the season, if seats are free. After that time a request to move counts as a cancellation and the amount is not refundable.
Not turning up
Boarding runs from 18:00 to 18:15. Anyone who reaches the valley station after 18:15 is treated as a no-show and loses the seat and the amount paid: the chairlift leaves on time and the trays have already been prepared.
Children and minors
Minors may take part only when accompanied by an adult, who is responsible for their safety throughout.
Alcoholic drinks are not served to anyone under 18.
Dogs
Dogs cannot take part in the Flying Aperitivo, not even small ones or dogs carried in arms.
Safety and conduct
The operating rules of the lift and the instructions of the staff apply throughout and must be followed.
Staff may refuse boarding to anyone who cannot travel safely, for example because they are visibly intoxicated. In that case the amount is not refunded.
For safety reasons the organiser may change times, seat numbers or the way the ride is run, or stop the activity while it is under way.
Liability
The organiser is liable for loss caused by its own breach within the limits set by law. It is not liable for loss arising from a failure to follow staff instructions, nor for personal belongings that are lost.
Complaints, governing law and jurisdiction
For any complaint, write or ring us using the contacts above: we always try to sort things out directly.
The contract is governed by Italian law. If you are a consumer, the courts of the place where you live or are resident have jurisdiction.
