Barb Posted February 22, 2019 Report Posted February 22, 2019 Pa (and CO) and prob other states offer a 6th grade ski pass that enables several free visits to local mountains for kids in 6th grade. Hoping that they will fall in love with skiing, then want to continue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote
mikes781 Posted February 22, 2019 Report Posted February 22, 2019 Lady at the ticket window told me earlier in the season that the 6th Grade Pass is actually a $99 season pass. 4th and 5th Grade PA Ski Pass is the one that gets you 3 passes to pretty much every mountain in PA along with 1 rental and 1 lesson. Costs about $30 and is a no brainer even if you use it once. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro 4 Quote
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted February 22, 2019 Report Posted February 22, 2019 Blue offers the $99 6th grade passes to kids that had the PA 5th Grade Ski Passports the year before, no doubt as a way to try to convert "ski around" families into Blue devotees. 1 Quote

I was planning on holding off til Gaper Day to buy my pass after using my buddy pass for a friend that day. Figured that way they couldn’t screw up and take next years buddy pass as they have been know to do. Quote

On the website it shows price going up $100 on April 1..and if they’re smart when April 1 hits they should extend the $429 price otherwise those that don’t make the deadline are gonna wait till fall Quote

They said my buddy pass would come off this years pass, since it hadn’t been used. Quote

I’ve found if it’s possible for the workers at Blue to screw something up, especially with their technology, it’s best to do my best to make it impossible for them to do so. Quote

A few years ago I redeemed a buddy pass and then it made my pass invalid. They should let people carryover buddy passes...doesn’t hurt them. Quote
RidgeRacer Posted March 6, 2019 Report Posted March 6, 2019 Will probably buy mine tomorrow or this weekend to be safe. 1 Quote

JFskiDan Posted March 7, 2019 Report Posted March 7, 2019 Im willing to bet sales of season passes are a little lower than they anticipated at this point. To get some green coming in now they announce them in “limited quantities.” I would say price is good to the end of the month. Thats just my worthless .02 cents. No “insider info.” 1 Quote

No “insider info.” I agree with this assessment. Suspect they are just trying to jump start a slow initial sales flow by creating artificial urgency. 1 Quote
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted March 7, 2019 Report Posted March 7, 2019 Adding $99 7th grade option would sell them 2 of those and an extra adult pass if done before I spring for Peak Pass Quote
