Ski clubs and the new Epic Day Passes – potential quirks to keep in mind

 

The brand new Epic Day Pass is offered in one to seven day increments with few to no date restrictions. The total days do not need to be used in a certain window of time. Passes are valid at ten western destination resorts and seven additional midwest/eastern resorts. Four day-plus passes include access to five additional western destination resorts. What does this mean for ski clubs?

A New Epic Pass Product

As of today, 3/30/19, a five day adult group lift ticket to ski at Vail, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge or Keystone – the “Colorado Ticket” – for the period between the Martin Luther King Jr and President’s Day holidays retails at $620, or $124 per day. It’s valid for a five out of eight day range.

Also as of 3/30/19, a five day Epic Day Pass – a brand new product – to ski at Vail, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Keystone, Telluride, Whistler, Sun Valley, Stowe, Heavenly (and on and on; 26 in total) retails for $470, or $94 per day. Each of those five days is valid for any day of the season except for ten days designated as holiday periods, most of which fall outside the most popular “ski club windows” of travel. (Note: Epic Day Passes valid over holidays are also available for a premium and still cost less than regular group tickets.)

Amazing, right? It is, and I can safely say the Epic Day Passes will be among our product line for ski clubs headed to most Epic-linked resorts (the day passes are not valid at every Epic Pass-linked resort, but most).
