DumbStick 13 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Nasu Family Onsen is electronic? Funny that small place like that and Ishiuchi Hanaoka. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 totally can't understand Hanaoka. They even seem to be owned by one of the companies on Maruyama. Tiny place only open weekends, and they have electric chip system installed. Link to post Share on other sites

Electronic: Nasu Family Onsen Marunuma Kogen Zao Paper: Pretty much anywhere else I have been. I'm fairly certain they had electronic, credit card-sized electronic tickets in the 2009-2010 season. Don't know if that is before or after you went, though. Link to post Share on other sites
Metabo Oyaji 71 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Nasu Family Onsen is electronic? Funny that small place like that and Ishiuchi Hanaoka. Yeah, small coin-shaped ones, if I remember correctly. Seems overkill for a two-lift place, but I suppose they must have thought it would save on personnel costs or something -- it's a real Mom-and-Pop operation. Personally prefer paper tickets myself. Souvenir value, and less wasted time at the end of the day having to return the things. Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I went there around 2004 & 2005!

If you want a souvenir of Niseko tickets, you may as well put 1000Yen notes in the draw. Link to post Share on other sites
igloo 3 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 You'd think they might give you a piece of paper when you took the chip back. You know, as an omiyage. Link to post Share on other sites

igloo 3 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I meant something more attractive than a receipt, something that looks like a ticket. Who wants to keep a receipt, unless it's for mr taxman. Link to post Share on other sites

If I could claim tax back for skiing, I would drop about 2-3 tax brackets... Link to post Share on other sites
