The Austrian ski resort, Schladming-Dachstein in Styria, has opened a new 10-seater gondola replacing the old six-seater lift on the Planai ski area.
The new gondola can transport up to 3,800 people per hour – increase of over 70% (capacity of previous gondola was 2,200ph) – which means that waiting times for winter sport enthusiasts are a thing of the past.
