USA: CityPASS Winter Family Vacations – The Gift of Time, Major Savings, and Line-skipping, VIP Access.CityPASS NYC Museum of Modern Art Great news for anyone planning an urban family winter adventure CityPASS offers more for less.
  
Here’s the scoop: The Winter Special by CityPASS - the company known for bundling  deeply discounted admission tickets to the top attractions in major North American cities – it timely and terrific. The normally good deal has just become better. In addition to money-saving benefits, and line-bypassing advantages the  Winter Special dramatically lengthens CityPASS's traditional nine-day validity period to 77 days. Really!

Here's the deal. Beginning Dec. 15, visitors purchasing or activating previously purchased CityPASS ticket booklets for New York City, Hollywood, Seattle, Boston and Philadelphia will have up to 77 days (until Feb. 28) to redeem the included attraction tickets (one use per individual ticket). Typically, once the first admission ticket in a booklet is redeemed, CityPASS holders have nine days in which to use the remaining attraction tickets. Winter Special, however, waives the nine-day rule, extending the usage period considerably.

More family vacation savings.  In addition to giving travelers more time to enjoy their passes and the attractions, CityPASS saves buyers up to 50 percent off the cost of purchasing the included attraction tickets separately. CityPASS also saves time, allowing users to bypass most main-entrance ticket lines. And isn't that an extra-special perk on a cold, blustery winter day?

Valid for winter breaks. While visitors have always found CityPASS to be a great deal, the expanded Winter Special usage period also makes the pass attractive to locals who may be hosting friends or family members over the holidays — not to mention looking for ways to entertain the kids over the winter break. The "valid all winter" concept encourages sightseers — both out-of-towners and locals alike — to take their time and explore a city at a leisurely pace.

Make it happen. CityPASS ticket booklets can be purchased online at CityPASS.com or at any of the participating attractions. Customers who purchase — or start using a previously purchased CityPASS ticket booklet — for the participating cities on or after Dec. 15, 2012, will have until Feb. 28, 2013, to use the included admission tickets. For travel starting Feb. 20 or later, the normal nine-day validity period will apply. Note: Each attraction admission ticket included in a CityPASS booklet may be used for only one admission to the respective attraction.
