How to Make the Most Out of Your Ikon Pass

Winter is in full swing, heavy snow is falling everywhere, and you’re ready to experience winter to the fullest with your new, shiny, and exciting 21/22 Ikon Pass. With up to 47 unique destinations worldwide, there is no time to waste when you’ve got your Ikon Pass locked and loaded.

In addition to allowing access to the mountain, your Ikon Pass offers so much more than just virtual lift tickets. Read below to learn more about how to make the most out of your Ikon Pass this season, from discounts to first tracks and more.

ACCESS EXCLUSIVE FIRST TRACKS

New for this year, Ikon Pass First Tracks allows pass holders to access early morning corduroy – before the lifts open to the public.

BOOK WITH IKON PASS TRAVEL

Adventure is made easy with Ikon Pass Travel, an exclusive website for Ikon Pass holders to easily shop around and plan the trip of a lifetime – all while staying on one website and working directly with Ikon Pass Travel specialists. Browse and book a customized trip with exclusive availability on hotels, airfare, and on-and-off mountain activities. Ikon Pass Travel specialists make it easy to assist with any customer service-related questions you may have, or to recommend top activities to curate the perfect winter getaway.

TAKE ADVANTAGE OF BIG DISCOUNTS

Your Ikon Pass offers much more than lift and gondola access. Ikon Pass, Ikon Base Pass, and Ikon Base Plus Pass holders receive various discounts on lodging, ski school and rentals, retail discounts, and F&B discounts at select destinations. Ikon Pass discounts vary by destination, so be sure to reach out to the destination directly to learn more about specific discounts for Ikon Pass holders.

Ikon Passes also come with additional lift tickets for friends and family at 25% off the window rate at all Ikon Pass destinations (excluding Kitzbühel, Zermatt, and Dolomiti Superski). With the Ikon Pass offering 10 Friends & Family lift tickets, and the Ikon Base Pass offering 8 Friends & Family lift tickets, fun is to be had by all – no matter whether someone purchased an Ikon Pass or not. This benefit is a great way to get your loved ones – who aren’t big skiers or riders – out on the slopes this season, and to share the love of adventure-filled powder days or bluebird skies.

TRACK ACHIEVEMENTS IN THE IKON PASS APP

Download the Ikon Pass app to easily access account information: view how many days you’ve visited each destination this season, check weather at your favorite mountains, easily manage your friends and family tickets (and connect with your crew), and track all your stats like vertical feet, max speed, altitude, and more.

Get stoked with a new feature for winter 21/22: the Ikon Pass app now offers the ability to track achievements and earn badges. With three tiers of badges for performance achievements like vertical, lifts, and destinations visited, you’ll have fun as you make your way through each level on your way to conquer them all.

Stay connected with the mountain – and your friends – with the Ikon Pass app.

VISIT MULTIPLE DESTINATIONS IN ONE TRIP

To make the most out of your Ikon Pass, plan to visit as many destinations as reasonably possible this season – as each one provides a unique experience unlike any other. With several Ikon Pass destinations close to major airports, it’s never been easier to access skiing and riding.

If you’d rather pack the car or the van with your gear, pets, and your favorite après food and beverages, gather a few of your closest friends for a wild ride and road trip around regional Ikon Pass destinations (with six destinations within driving distance in one state, this Colorado road trip is our favorite). Don’t sweat it if your friend doesn’t have an Ikon Pass – remember you can use your Friends & Family tickets to help a pal out, if available.

JUST SEND IT

With unlimited skiing and riding at over 10 destinations, and between five to seven days at select destinations worldwide, your Ikon Pass offers endless adventure for an unforgettable winter. Just having a pass and being able to ski or ride any Ikon Pass destination at any time (except blackout dates – be sure to check them ahead of time here) means having a winter filled with once-in-a-lifetime memories and infinite adventure. Gone are the days of having to plan in advance by booking a physical lift ticket online or in person – as the best benefit of the Ikon Pass is the easy access to the mountain, with minimal planning required.

Your Ikon Pass offers more than mountain access: it offers a lifestyle and an experience full of adventure, wild rides, and endless fun. Grab your Ikon Pass and head out to your favorite destination – or destinations – and take advantage of the exclusive pass holder perks this season. We’ll see you on the mountain.
