“Lift tickets are extremely limited this season as we are prioritizing our pass holders,” said Vail spokesperson John Plack. “Like every year – passes provide the best value (including Epic Day Passes which save up to 50% off lift ticket prices). Lift ticket purchasers can always save money by buying in advance.”

Vail and Deer Valley often rival for the highest lift ticket prices in the nation; last season Vail jumped to $219 for the peak season after being $209 during 2018-19 season and $199 during the 2017-18 season.
