It’s no secret. Everyone from Forbes to Bloomberg is talking about how 2021 is going to be the year of travel and as the leading provider of ski vacation packages, we’ve already begun to see the pent-up demand come through in the form of earlier-than-normal reservations.
Inventory is flying off the shelves and we want to make sure our clients book their ski trips as early as possible this year. If you’re wanting to book a school break or holiday ski vacation, the urgency to book now is very real. If you’re still doubtful, we’ve compiled our top reasons why you should start the planning process today, not tomorrow.

5 REASONS TO BOOK YOUR SKI TRIP EARLY IN 2021
5) AIRFARE
This should come as no surprise, but as the airline industry bounces back after an extremely tough year, you can practically count on prices rising, especially considering the increased demand. Still, there are some pandemic-level low prices hanging around, and if you’re willing to move quickly, airfare prices are still very good. Book your flight and other trip components with a Mountain Travel Expert in order to maximize your savings.
4) HIGHLY SOUGHT-AFTER PROPERTIES ARE GOING FAST
Groups, from families to ski clubs, are securing their lodging for the upcoming ski season, and before you know it, the most popular properties will be all booked up. Instead of having to scatter everyone in your party around the resort or hotel, act now and get everyone under the same roof in a cozy ski-in ski-out home.
3) EARLY BIRD LIFT TICKETS
Lift ticket prices are expected to increase throughout the summer on everything from the Epic Passes and Ikon Passes to individual lift tickets at specific resorts. Those who purchase their lift tickets or season passes early are always on the receiving end of the best discounts.

2) TRAVEL VENDORS AGREE
This year, we’ve been speaking with numerous vendors that include ground transportation providers, spa services, as well as equipment rental shops and the general consensus continues to be: book early to secure your spot and get the best product at the best price. Ski.com will make sure you get it all and more, all while providing the best in flexible cancellation policies.
1) BEST PRICES FOR HOLIDAY SKI PACKAGES
The inventory for highly sought-after periods such as the holidays and other school breaks are going fast, so we encourage our customers to start working with their Mountain Travel Experts NOW before their favorite hotel or property books up. Also, if you’re looking to travel to Canada or Europe, our Mountain Travel Experts have the inside scoop on when things are expected to start opening in the coming weeks and months.
