How to plan your family ski trip for the holidays with a smile!

Home » Colorado Ski Resort News » Breckenridge » How to plan your family ski trip for the holidays with a smile!

October 11, 2017 by Summit Express

By now, most families have nailed down their holiday family ski trip or in the midst of it. It can be quite overwhelming. Here are a few tips to keep your sanity!

  1. Use the standard of booking early (even if your trip is Spring Break), so you can get the flight you desire as well as the airport shuttle that works with your arrival and departure times.
  2. Utilize an airport shuttle (we know a great one) to help you get to and from your destination instead of renting a car. Resorts usually offer free shuttles around town as well as a free bus service that connects you other to other resorts close by. Uber/Lyft are also available in the area. If you decide to rent a car, please be aware of the Traction Law on Interstate 70 when roads get slick to make sure your rental has the proper tires.  Check current road conditions here.
  3. You do not have to run out and buy winter clothing and gear for the whole family. Not only can you rent skis, boots, poles, and boards, you can also rent clothing in and around most resorts. Save 20% on your ski or board rentals just by riding the Summit Express airport shuttle with Ski Butlers.
  4. Not a big ski fan? No problem, check out the other options available to you! Here are just a few:  tubing, sledding, snowmobiling, ice skating, and even children’s museums.
  5. Please allow plenty of time to return back to the Denver airport.  We recommend at least 4 hours window during the weekdays and 5 hours on weekends. If there is a snow storm involved, we may call you to see if you would like to move up to an earlier shuttle.

Frank was an awesome driver – he drove exceptionally well and at the same time kept us entertained with jokes, stories and smack talking. Everyone is the shuttle was having a blast with this dude. He really made the ride at the end of a long travel day a fun experience.

Frank is a great driver, very friendly and chatty and made the end of our trip a happy time rather than a sad ride to the airport and back to reality.

Absolutely loved working with Summit Express! Could not have been better. We were shuttled from DIA to Breckenridge various times over two months, using 28 shuttles in total. Not once did Summit Express make a mistake, every transfer was perfect. Always on time!

We loved their friendly customer service. They were flexible when we had to change our schedule multiple times at the last minute, courteous to our needs, and they really cared about making us content with what we were buying. They are all about their customers and I could not think of a better company to use.

The communication was top notch, which included a reminder text the day before, a phone call from the driver, and this follow up thank you email. In addition, any time I called the office everyone was very courteous & friendly. I’ll definitely be recommending your company to others & I will use it again as well. Thanks so much for the top rate service!
