All Ski Resort questions welcome For now I just have one Buying tickets used to be easy but not having been for nearly a decade it seams a lot has changed. For obvious reasons they have tightened down the ticket window including actually passing legislation concerning tickets and thoes who hold them. My question is this. I have some friends visiting this winter from abroad who want to ski. Im working so I will not be skiing with them. They know little english and I would like to purchase them tickets ahead of time. From what I gather this seams to be impossible unless I am missing something. Is there no way to gift someone ski ticktets without having to actually be on the hill to get them with photo id and credit card used for the purchase?

I believe you're right. I'm not 100% sure though since I don't buy individual tickets. Ticket window prices have gotten so high though that depending on how many days your friends are staying it may be worth them getting an Epic pass instead, which they can do pretty easily online. However, Vail stop selling them usually around American Thanksgiving (IIRC) so if they decide to go that route they have to buy them before the last day.

Vail Resorts is the devil and you should not give them your money.

Vail (Resorts) has a new day pass where you purchase a set number of days ahead of time, and then use them as the season goes on. If they are just going to be skiing a few days this would be the cheapest way to do it. I don't know the answer to purchasing tickets for someone else, although playing around with the purchasing page on Vail's website I see a field to "assign" a pass to someone, so perhaps you can purchase for someone else? I've done that kind of a transaction for other resort's passes, but never in the Vail fiefdom. Uncle Lloyd fucked around with this message at 02:11 on Oct 20, 2019 |
