I have not received mine yet ... apparently there was a snafu with our photos so we had to upload again! They said we will get them in early November. That's fine, we won't be skiing until after Thanksgiving anyway.
I may use the lanyard.
A few days ago, I received an email saying that if I uploaded my photo immediately, I would have my passes in early November. At the beginning of October, I had checked with BBMR to see if they had transferred over my photo. They said they had. Being of a suspicious nature, I had contacted Alterra and they said I was good to go that they had everything. What happened in between? No clue!Auuugh! Where they going to tell you? Or did you have to call and find out?
I asked an Ikon rep at the Boston Ski Expo what to do if I don't get my Ikon pass before my December ski safari in the northeast. They asked what the first resort I was planning to ski. Some resorts can make an Ikon pass on the spot. I said Stratton, which is most likely. So they sent me over to the Stratton booth, which was right next to the Ikon booth. Stratton can make Ikon passes.
The Ikon rep wasn't surprised that I didn't get my pass in the mail yet because I bought it relatively recently. Suggested I could call Customer Service to check on status if it doesn't arrive in November.
