This Austin Skiers Trip is an Epic destination.
Trip Chair: TBA - their email will be crestedbutte@austinskiers.org
The Trip itinerary (from our website) includes a lot of valuable information such as future air details, lodging and much more! See section below to learn how to get it on your phone!
This Trip is for current members of Austin Skiers only, or those that have reciprocal status when it becomes available. Registrations made by anyone outside of these options will be cancelled unless the requirements (membership or reciprocity) are met within 24 hours of notification by the Trip Chair.
All Trip Pricing is per person and is ground only with add-ons for Club Air, Transfers (if applicable), Single Supplement (Private room) and Group Ski Lifts (when available). Note that due to the trend of more Club members choosing to book their own air, the Club is only booking a limited amount of air seats. If you do not book the Club air, you are responsible for being at the airport in time for the Club organized transfer, if you wish to take it. Alternatively you can organize your own transport to the Club accommodations.
This Trip is currently a ground only package and we are not offering group air.
$300 is due upon booking.
$500 due on Oct. 5th (Single Supplement $1000).
Trip Balance due on December 15th.
Due to Member requests, we no longer include the credit card fee in the trip pricing but allow members to choose their method of payment. If a credit card is used, the fees will be charged to the member on checkout and if ACH is chosen, there are no extra fees.
Payments will be auto billed to the same payment method used to sign up for the trip, according to the schedule above. Registrants may change/update their credit card on file or ACH info at any time in their payment settings of WeTravel.
Cancellations:
Up until the second payment is due, the cost of cancellation is $100. These fees are to defray expenses in trip registration.
After the second deposit/payment date, the Club reserves the right to withhold all deposits & payments made according to the payment schedule (including trips paid in full) until it can be determined what costs the Club will incur due to the cancellation. The second deposit date correlates directly to the contracted guaranteed room count. Once unrecoverable expenses are determined, Austin Skiers will return the portion of the payment that can be recovered, less the $100 cancellation fee to the cancelling member. The Club will do its best to make any refunds as quickly as possible but may not be able to issue such refunds until after the trip is complete.
