There’s no catch! There are a few reasons why we can offer such great packages for such low prices! Experience, Volume and Timing! Experience, we have been providing College Students ski trips for 25 years, we know the ski resorts and the people who run them. We have established long-standing relationships with lift ticket offices, management companies, ski shops, airlines and every other facet in the ski industry. Volume, by taking thousands of skiers to the mountains every year, we receive the absolute lowest prices on lodging and lift tickets for college groups. Timing, by offering our “College Ski & Board Week” trip the first week in January (after Christmas and New Year’s), we are able to offer ski packages at 40%-60% cheaper than traveling in the last week of December (and the lifts lines are much shorter in January!) return to top
