Sunday River Lift Pass Information

On By Duggan Ski GroupIn Information, Sunday RiverLeave a comment

For anyone travelling to Sunday River this year, we have some helpful information to pass along regarding your lift passes.

We recommend purchasing the March Canadian Passport, which is valid for skiing at Sunday River from March 1, 2019 through to the end of the season. Current prices are valid until February 15, 2019.

When you arrive at the hill at the start of your vacation, your season passes will not be waiting for you at the hotel when you check in – you must go to the season pass desk at South Ridge Lodge in order to pick up your pass. Your photo will be taken and your pass will be created for you.

You will be required to sign a Liability Release Form as well for your Canadian March Passport. There is a link to an electronic signature option through the Sunday River site here for you to sign in advance: E-Sign Season Pass Liability Release Form.

Don’t forget, benefits of the March Passport include 20% savings on dining cards, retail, SnowSports School and rentals during March.

Dining cards can be purchased at the season pass desk at South Ridge Lodge; simply show your March Passport when purchasing services or other items to receive the discount.

Any other questions on picking up your pass please let us know!

This is your last reminder for Sunday River’s lowest prices of the season, as they are set to increase on Monday, October 15th!!

Remember, the detailed information and all the links you need can all be found here: Booking at Sunday River. Our last post also gave you an example cost along with the booking links, as it is all done directly through Sunday River.

If you are planning your vacation, we don’t want you to miss out on the lowest rates 🙂 The Sunday River cancellation policy is also very generous for your booked lodging. Your deposit, less a $50 cancellation fee, will be refunded on cancellations made more than 14 days prior to arrival.

Happy Friday!

Sunday River Price Increase

On By Duggan Ski GroupIn Updates1 Comment

Just a friendly reminder – the quoted rates you see on our site and on the Sunday River site are set to increase on October 15th!!! We at the Duggan Ski Group do not know the details of how much they may increase, but have been told to expect something.

If you are planning to book for this upcoming March, now is when you will find the lowest rates! Keep reading to the bottom of this post to see the cheapest way to book your vacation.

Remember, the detailed information and links you need can all be found here: Booking at Sunday River.

We also thought it would be nice to give an example of the savings you will receive when booking your lodging through the Duggan Ski Group booking link vs. through the hill directly as a non-group member.

The example below is for a family of three (two adults, one junior), staying at the Grand Summit Hotel in a Studio Deluxe for five nights, from March 10 – 15, 2019. Note, the lift ticket rates are the same for both as we recommend booking the Canadian March Passport option for your best rates.

Sunday River

Lodging Base Price  $                 756.00  $                   419.00
Taxes / Fees (20%)  $                   90.72  $                     83.80
Lodging Total (USD)  $                 846.72  $                   502.80
Savings (USD)  $                   343.92
Adult Lift Ticket 1  $                 219.00  $                   219.00
Adult Lift Ticket 2  $                 219.00  $                   219.00
Junior Lift Ticket  $                 179.00  $                   179.00
Total Example Cost (USD)  $             1,463.72  $               1,119.80
*Deposit required on lodging portion at time of booking  $                423.36  $                  251.40

All rates are USD and subject to confirmation when booking with Sunday River. These are correct to the best of our knowledge (valid until October 15th), but in the event of a discrepancy between these rates and those quoted by the Hill directly – the Sunday River rates are correct.

The important thing to remember is that your cheapest option for booking at Sunday River is to book your lodging and lift tickets separately:

This will save you hundreds of dollars! You can see the $300+ USD savings above on a Studio Deluxe and a One Bedroom Suite saves $500+ USD!

We thought those of you not following us on Facebook might be missing out on some of the recent pictures we have been sharing of both Jay Peak and Sunday River!

Conditions at both resorts are looking excellent, with so much more snow than we are seeing here in Nova Scotia! Jay Peak has received close to 3 feet of snow in the past 6 days with even more snow in the forecast tomorrow. Sunday River has also had it’s fair share of the white stuff and is predicting over 6 inches tomorrow.

Check out Jay Peak:

Hard to believe that those of you travelling to Sunday River during the New Brunswick March Break (the ‘early week’) will already be at the hill in just under a 1 month. And of course, just over 1 month for the rest of us travelling for the Nova Scotia March Break 🙂

All images are courtesy of the respective resort Facebook pages. See more of Sunday River here, and Jay Peak here, And of course, check out the Duggan Ski Group Facebook page.
