22/23 Season Passes

[Big Bob]

Like my controller says. It is what it is. With a full second from my accountant. You want to play. You have to pay. Cannon is still a solid deal. Beast 365 to keep the kids happy. Painful. But its for the children. Insert crying imogie here.

Where you able to convince either one that season passes for children should be a write off under child care and yours should go in the health care write off column?

Seems that when the prices were reposted on March 24th there was an increase from the earlier posting. I am sure I saw the Senior Unlimited posted at $699, and now it is $709. It is also difficult to find the price increase date, I think it is June 23rd.

Are you now looking at the price of the pass with the payment plan? That has a 2 - 2.5% premium added to it.

Yup - looks like it changed the Adult unlimited was listed at $1,099 when the info was first posted - now showing $1,119. I don't see anything where that difference is because of having selected payment plan.

You are correct that it looks like June 23rd is the deadline before they go up again.

Beast pass = $1548. Benefits seem similar

No. My accountant has no sense of adventure. I guess that's what I pay her for. I believe it should fall under mental health and therapy.

Try gym membership.... Most of the winter it's just excersise until it snows.

Anybody know what day the price increases? IIRC it's normally some time in June.

June 23 according to the website:

Last day to buy your pass before the price increase is today.

Passes purchased - waited until the last minute as usual.

Went with just the winter pass again this year. Thought again about the 365 pass but just would not be able to justify the value even though I like the idea.

And - to me it continues to be annoying that we don't get any access at the other Powder resorts by being a Killington pass holder. It just still seems wrong that essentially Stratton and Sugarbush passholders get unlimited access at Copper, but Killington passholders get nothing - even though both Killington and Copper are Powdr properties.

[PinnacleJim]

The 365 pass gives you the base IKON pass which gives full access to Copper.

[boston_e]

Correct - at a pretty huge step up in price. As mentioned - is seems wrong that for all intents and purposes, Sugarbush and Stratton passholders get full copper access, yet Killington passholders do not. It is a poor customer service gesture on Powdr's part to Killington’s passholders that they are not offered access to the other few resorts in The Prowdr portfolio…. Especially when we are towards the higher end of the spectrum in season pass pricing.

[PinnacleJim]

Don't disagree that if you don't mountain bike or golf, the 365 price bump to get the base IKON is pretty steep. The price bump is actually more for seniors than it is for adults! And IKON pass holders get full access to Powdr's Colorodo resorts (Copper and Eldora) but only 5 or 10 days at Killington. But the 365 is a great deal for a Killington skier that uses the summer activities and also takes a ski vacation out west. Too bad there isn't a way to get the base IKON with your Killington pass without paying for a bunch of stuff you won't use.

Agree - the 365 is a great deal (even without the IKON) for someone who is up there all summer and uses it. As you mention - it just seems wrong that Sugarbush and Stratton passholders (which if those are your home mountains your season pass in an IKON) get full western access to Powdr resorts - but those of us who are the most loyal Powdr customers here in the east get zilch. That seems backwards to me.... especially when a singular Killington pass is significantly higher priced than an IKON pass.
