One of the more recent promotions is Squaw Valley's Sacramento shuttle service. The shuttles leave Sacramento at 7 a.m. every Saturday for Squaw Valley, providing Bay Area and Sacramento area skiers with an environmentally friendly and cost-effective mode of transportation. For $79 (the price of an adult lift ticket), shuttle riders get skiing and transportation to and from Squaw Valley. The service is also available to non-skiers; season passholders may reserve transportation for $40.
Travel is also the focus of Aspen/Snowmass' partnership with Frontier Airlines. The joint Free Flight, Free Night and Free Day offer gives guests the opportunity to package two tickets to Aspen/Snowmass on Frontier Airlines with a minimum of four nights lodging and four days of skiing/riding to get one free airline ticket and a fifth night of lodging and a fifth day of skiing/riding free. If guests rent equipment through Four-Mountain Sports and D&E Ski and Snowboard Shop, they get the fifth day free with every four-day rental.
On the east coast, Jiminy Peak is offering 50 percent off the resort's Midweek SKIwee price every Wednesday and Thursday Jan. 14-29. The program for children ages 3-12 includes a lift ticket, lesson and lunch. The resort is also offering several lodging specials, including a Martin Luther King Weekend Lodging Special and a Free Thursday Night special, valid for Thursday check-ins that include a weekend stay. \
