ShipSkis today announced an expanded multi-year partnership with Alterra Mountain Company. ShipSkis has been named the company’s Official Shipping Partner of Ikon Pass and participating Alterra Mountain Company destinations through 2028.
Building on a successful program launch, the partnership introduces new ways for guests to move more easily between the mountains they love. Through ShipSkis’ door-to-door shipping services for skis, snowboards, luggage, and gear, Ikon Pass holders and resort guests can bypass airport congestion, avoid oversized baggage fees, and arrive primed for blue-sky days.
“As the Ikon Pass community grows, we remain focused on enhancing and simplifying the guest journey. ShipSkis has proven to be a trusted partner in helping travelers begin their travel with ease, and this expansion brings even more value before guests reach the mountain,” Ryan Blanchard, Vice President, Brand Partnerships at Alterra Mountain Company, said.
Key benefits of ShipSkis’ service for guests include:
- Door-to-door convenience, with gear picked up from a home or office and delivered directly to accommodations at Alterra Mountain Company destinations.
- A smoother airport experience, with no oversized baggage to check or claim on arrival.
- Real-time tracking and dedicated support, offering assurance throughout the journey.
- An on-time delivery guarantee, helping guests plan their days with confidence.
Throughout the multi-year term, Ikon Pass holders will receive a special shipping offer and access to dedicated resources to simplify planning and enhance the travel experience. Through Ikon Pass Peak Perks, eligible pass holders receive a 25 percent introductory benefit plus ongoing 10 percent savings. Deer Valley Resort guests also enjoy a $100 booking credit. Guests will also see increased visibility for ShipSkis across select resort websites, communications, and in-destination channels.
“We’re excited about the ongoing expansion of our partnership with Alterra Mountain Company. Together, we’re creating a better, smoother way to travel for Ikon Pass holders and resort guests. Welcome to the future of No Baggage,” Jonathan Marsico, CEO of ShipSkis, said.
