fast track pricing

[Atomic1]

Does it really "sometimes sell out"?

Unless there’s invisible people skiing, you never know!

[Bubba]

Is there ever a line at the Fast Tracks entry?

[fdskier56]

I have 20 days in this winter and I haven’t seen 1
Person use fast track lane

Edit- nearly all wknds and holidays

[daytripper]

Can't say I've ever seen someone use fast track ever, but I try my best to avoid Saturdays.

[easyrider16]

I am there almost every Saturday. I've seen people use it legitimately (i.e. they entered the gate and didn't duck the rope) on several occasions. Never have I seen a line, though.

[Captain Hafski]

Only times I've seen it used was by someone ducking the rope into it, mostly on the SD-6.

With that said, Killington ought to wake up with that configuration at the SD-6. For one thing, the two lane Fast Track RFID gate has one of the gates permanently open; there aren't even any 'arms' on it. So, have seen lots of peeps just going right through it and bypassing the RFID gates [i.e., skiing for free]. Secondly, it is super easy to get into the singles line and then duck under the rope into the Fast Track lane.

Thirdly, and not really a Fast Track thing, but also at the SD 6 I see lots of peeps just ducking under the "ski school" rope, that is up pretty high, and avoiding the RFID gates all together [and skiing for free].

I see Fast Track, at least at Killington, as a bit of a sucker's product. It's not often even on a Saturday that we can't find somewhere on the mountain with a minimal line. Add to that, the Fast Track only allows you to skip part of the line - it's not like ski school where they skip right to the front. It seems to me that it's more about making the buyer feel important than actually delivering something material.

I love when there are people waiting in the Fast Tracks line and they keep calling singles from the regular line to load the chair.

That pretty much sums up the Fast Tracks program. Killington Resort, Mike S, and all Killington Staff should be ashamed.

Ashamed of trying to make an extra buck off "suckers" who are willing to pay for essentially little or no benefit? No.

[PinnacleJim]

Fast Tracks is a program driven by Powdr. Same program at Copper. I would bet Killington had no choice about putting it in. I do agree it is a solution looking for a problem.

Just Barnum being Barnum. Bubba for the win

Last year, on day 100, they loaded a Fast Track ticket onto our passes for that day. I seem to remember using the Fast Track lane for maybe two runs. It didn't seem like it really helped us, but I think it was a weekday anyway.

Tomorrow, 2/10, will be day 100 for this season. It might be more useful on a weekend day. We'll see.
