Use the price you really pay
If you normally use card discounts, online booking, or shorter tickets, the list price will understate break-even visits. Enter the cost you can realistically purchase each time.
For multi-resort trips, count only expected days at resorts covered by the pass.
- Basic break-even = actual pass price ÷ actual day-ticket price
- Round up to the next whole visit
- Count only covered-resort days
Example: 500,000-won pass and 70,000-won ticket
The simple result is about 7.14 visits. Seven tickets total 490,000 won, so the pass has not broken even; the eighth visit takes ticket spending to 560,000 won.
At ten visits, day tickets total 700,000 won, a simple 200,000-won difference. Also test what happens if planned days are lost.
- 7 tickets: 490,000 won
- 8 tickets: 560,000 won
- 10 tickets: 700,000 won
Put extras on the correct side
Add season-only lockers, storage, and shuttle plans to pass cost. Add repeated booking or higher transport costs to day-ticket use where applicable.
Gear lasts across seasons, so decide whether to charge it to one season or spread it over expected years before comparing.
Break-even is not the whole decision
A pass can restrict you to one resort, and weather, travel time, closures, or injury can reduce use. Compare optimistic, base, and conservative visit counts.
The calculator compares price scenarios. Refund, transfer, blackout, and usage rules in the seller's terms take priority.
