Would you be able to share some of the things to do in the area?
Reiterkogelbahn cable car and walk down.
Zell am see - bike around (1 hour) and boat ride.
Kitzsteinhorn - Sleding in the summer!
Schmitten - Go up Schmittenhohebahn walk around and come down with Sonnenalbahn (they both come down to the same point so don't worry about leaving your car) crazy views from zell am see. ( this is a 5 star)
Biking/Segway Rent from hotel.
Behind the hotel very nice park - zipline and small cars for little children (4-6) to drive. (this was a hit for my son).
Golden gate - rope park/big jumping slides/zip line/nice views.
Sigmund-Thun Klamm/Liechtensteinklamm - they are both same idea, you walk along beautiful waterfalls.
Familienberg Maiskogel - alpine slide plus other stuff for kids.
Go kart - (Karting Track Saalbach)
Shopping in Zell am see.
Kristallwelten Swarovski - Indoors good for rainy

Rates from this year are attached.
You can use citi 4th night free with this hotel, because the hotel themselves run the kosher program, unlike other companies.
The hotel is very nice, mainly European hardly any Israelis.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/tu83a3ax9viyt11/brochure2018.pdf?dl=0

I went twice and landed in Munich, I am a Presidental circle member with Hertz (from united club card).
I booked a mid-size, and once they gave me Volvo XC90 other time Jaguar F-space, I love the German car rentals.

When I landed I received a text of the car spot location, I went up and the keys were waiting in the car, didn't have to wait for anything. I love this service.

Couple + 2 teens from Israel are interested in a week in Austria in the summer (right after 9 Av). Seeking the wonders of nature.
Were thinking about Tylor area. It seems that there is Chalav Yisrael via https://koshertirol.com/en/news-updates/.

We are not foodies, and happy to do with low-maintenance meals, but would really like something nicer for Shabbos.

1) Suggestions how to get food for Shabbos (arriving on a Monday)? Would be happy to join a hotel for their Shabbos, if possible.

2) How do we look for flights from Israel that we can use point on. I have Citi, United, Chase, Amex, and CapOne points.

Thank you!

Ari, do you think you can help with a trip to Tyrol, Austria? See my latest post, please!

here is a quick TR, hope this can give you ideas:
We went for 3 days with a 2 year old

Day One
- We flew into Munich airport and rented a car (tip: if you need a car seat, make sure you book as part of the reservation. They told us we could just pick one up when we get there but they didn't end up having one and we wasted half a day driving around Munich getting one)

For Shabbos you can join the Lefkowitz Family Program in St Anton am Arlberg - food is high standard…

On a typical year it’s mainly Israeli, some European - Antwerp/London and few Americans. Not sure how it will be this year with the travel restrictions.
