As part of this year’s WS Days, we were once again able to celebrate a special highlight: the presentation of the WS Online Award. This year, the focus was on a topic that is increasingly shaping the industry: dynamic pricing in ski schools.

Winner of the WS Online Award 2026

We would like to warmly congratulateMathias Fritz, ski school director of Skischule Warth, on winning the WS Online Award 2026!

With a well-thought-out implementation of dynamic pricing, he successfully aligned supply and demand while significantly increasing the utilization of his ski school. His approach demonstrates how data-driven pricing not only delivers economic benefits but also positively influences guests' booking behavior.

Dynamic Pricing in Ski Schools: Increase Revenue with Flexible Pricing

Dynamic pricing refers to a flexible pricing strategy where costs vary depending on demand, season, and booking time. For ski schools in particular, this model opens up new opportunities in online sales.

The benefits at a glance:

Improved capacity utilization through adjusted pricing during low and peak seasons
Revenue growth through intelligent price management
Early bookings that provide better planning security
Optimized online booking systems for guests

Skischule Warth successfully leveraged this potential and strategically integrated it into their digital approach.

Best Practices: Successfully Implementing Dynamic Pricing

The success of Skischule Warth is not only based on technology, but above all on thoughtful execution. The following factors were key:

Clear communication of the pricing structure
Transparency plays a crucial role. Guests are more likely to understand price variations when informed early on.

Strategic use of digital channels
Website, newsletters, and social media were used effectively to explain the pricing logic.

Incentives for early bookings
Attractive conditions for early bookers help distribute demand more evenly.

Data-driven decision-making
Booking data and demand trends form the basis for continuous optimization.
