rewrite paragraph on Innsbruck Card
[edit]The following piece is a big mess, lacking clarity, clearly defined "when should be used" and way too long. Could anyone help in rewriting it?
- The Innsbruck-Card [9] offers free entrance to all of Innsbruck's sights, free use of public transportation (including the TS line). It also includes a one-time ascent&descent to Nordkette, Patscherkofel and Axamer Lizum and free entrance to Swarovski Kristallwelten [10] in Wattens. The Innsbruck-Card is valid for 24/48/72 hours and can be purchased at Innsbruck Information (Burggraben 3), the TI in Hauptbahnhof, and several museums and tourist offices. Tip: The Innsbruck card is pretty expensive, 25/30/35 euro for 1/2/3 day cards. And daily or weekly public transport cards are cheap - the "all inclusive" sales pitch is alluring to disoriented travelers, but make sure the discounts are worth the initial price. If you are not seeing these major entrance-fee sites, remember that you may buy more than one daily card at a time, as the 24 hours only starts once validated. Be sure to compare with the price of a weekly ticket too.

Winters are cold and snowy
[edit]I would not confirm this. Due to the Föhn (a zephyr-wind) sometimes even in witner it might be warm and with lesse snow. White christmas is in Innsbruck a 50/50 chance. Snow in january or february might be more reliable. —The preceding comment was added by (WT-en) Paschberg (talk • contribs) 5 November 2011

New Banner
[edit]You asked for thoughts, Bart Ender. I prefer the new banner, because the scene seems more distinctive to me than snow-capped mountains. Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:53, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
- I agree - it looks very nice! --Nick talk 22:54, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
