Hi,
Is it possible to change the passenger name before activation?
If my wife can not come to the trip and my son replacing her.
Should we do a new pass and get refund? or is it possible to change the name?

Thank you.

Hi there,

Please contact our support team via [email protected] and we will see what we can do for you.

These things are often decided on a case-by-case basis, so I can't tell you right here.

Thank you,

Can we get a refund if we do not use the pass?
Thanks.

Yes, although an administration fee may apply.

Here too, I would ask you to contact our sales team via [email protected] if you wish to get your pass refunded.
