Flex appeal

Liftopia's new tiered pricing system for skiers and snowboarders

by CAMILLE CHIN • November 2014

that’ll give skiers and snowboarders more flexibility beginning this winter. The online lift-ticket-sales aggregator now lets customers choose Value, Value Plus and Flexible options. Value lift tickets are date-specific, non-changeable and non-refundable, but they offer the biggest discounts (up to 80 percent) off window rates when purchased in advance. Value Plus tickets allow customers a one-time date change during the season; Flexible tickets allow unlimited date changes during the season. If Value Plus and Flexible tickets are changed to dates that are more expensive, customers will have to pay the difference, but they won’t be charged separate change fees. There are over 130 Canadian resorts on Liftopia’s website. Their tiered pricing system is also being introduced on some resort websites using Liftopia’s cloud-based platform. tel: (800) 349-0870; liftopia.com.
