Ok, well, if you allow day of cancellation then I am fine with charging people for no-shows (or some other penalty). But you have to allow no-penalty day-of cancellation.Quote:

I think they could give you like 5 free day of no shows. Like excused absence.Quote:

Of course this only matters if the resorts are actually limiting. Just because they require reservations does not prove they have a cap. Don’t really trust Vail to be honest. Not sure about these ikon resorts.
Just tried to book a day at Keystone this past weekend. All booked. Nothing available. This is not encouraging.Quote:

Steamboat took away the Gondola square cam, would be poor PR to see just how long the lines will be. It wasn't working out for them last year when there was no covid, the lines still went out the the bus transit station on most pow mornings and certainly on weekends, esp after they stopped letting people wait inside the gondy building (which was a stupid move to begin with).
They also put a disclaimer on their webpage that cue times may be enacted on certain days. This will go over like a fart in church.
Steamboat just announced delay of opening into December.
^^^ I think they should all do that and plead with people to get this more under control (whatever that means these days) before opening.
The industry is probably lazer focused on Xmas week. If they don't get that, the whole thing could come crashing down into closures.
Steamboat's gondola-centric approach has never made sense to me.
It's all about a comfortable ride for the Boomers to get them up the hill.Quote:

This is true but the new gondola is pretty sweet. Way higher capacity now. Covid will make it more of a pain but even when the line is huge it moves pretty fast now especially if use the singles line. Covid who knows everything is going to be slower if we even have a seasonQuote:

You can do the 2 lift thing, but the lines at the second lift suck.Quote:
