Terms and Conditions of our Heli Ski Packages

We offer one of the very best credit, refund, and cancellations policies in the helicopter skiing industry. Please read, and understand these polices as they are clearly stated, we will strictly adhere to them, as well as all of our policies. Our terms, conditions, and policies are absolute.

Reservations

Individuals or groups can purchase guaranteed reservations for skiing on specific dates on a first come, first served basis. Reservations require a 50% per seat deposit with full payment due 90 days prior to your reservation date.  We ask all our guests to thoroughly read the information supplied on our website and call/email to ask any questions in order to understand all terms and conditions before signing-up for a heli ski trip.

Cancellation Policy

For seats canceled with more than 90 days notice, a full refund will be given, less a $375.00 cancellation fee. For cancellations within 90 days of your trip, your deposit and final payments are non-refundable for ANY REASON. If COVID causes us to cancel your trip, a credit of 100% of all money paid will be held for you to use within the next 3 seasons at Majestic Heli Ski.  NO REFUNDS DUE TO COVID, GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN, OR NATURAL DISASTER FOR ANY REASON.  Our reservation and cancellation policies are absolute.

Credit and Refund Policy for Guaranteed Vertical

Majestic Heli Ski has one of the best credit/refund policies for the guaranteed vertical associated with the ski package you purchase.  Here is an example of how it works.

The Majestic Heli Ski seven day package includes 90,000 vertical feet of skiing. If you fall short of 90,000 vertical feet of skiing during your visit due to inclement weather or a mechanical breakdown, you will be credited at a rate of 100% on the price of the skiing portion of your package (food and lodging is a fixed price currently at $300 per day and is not included in the credit/refund), or refunded at a rate of 50% of the skiing portion price of your package. For example; if you skied 45,000 vertical feet (because of no-fly days/weather or a mechanical) you would receive a 45,000 vertical feet credit, (which is equal to 50% of your skiing package cost towards a future trip in this example), or a 50% refund (which is equal to 25% of your skiing package cost in this example) on the 45,000 vertical feet not skied. Your credit is valid for up to the next 3 calendar years; the next 3 heli seasons.  You must confirm in writing within 30 days of receiving information related to the vertical feet you skied if you would like a cash refund.  If no response is received within 30 days, only a credit will be issued, and credit will only be available for the following 3 seasons.  If seeking a cash refund, Majestic will refund within 6 months of request.

The same credit and refund percentages stated above are used for our three day package (30,000 vertical feet), four day package (45,000 vertical feet) and our five day package (60,000 vertical feet).

Private packages are based upon the Hobbs Hour Meter (flight time). 15 hours is the flight time for our private packages, with 8 hours being the guaranteed flight time for the private packages. The same credit and refund percentages stated above are used for our private packages.

Purchasing additional Vertical

Once you reach the vertical feet of your package you have the option to purchase additional vertical feet at the price of $100 per 1000 vertical feet. For example; an additional 10,000 vertical feet (a full day of skiing) would cost $1,000. This is a great option because if you don’t want to ski more you don’t have to, but if you want to keep skiing we offer it at a highly reduced rate. Minimum of 2 guests required.

  • There is no guarantee regarding snow quality, the weather, or snow stability (the avalanche hazard) as to what type of terrain we can or cannot ski. We are fortunate to be able to heli ski and we accept with a smile what Mother Nature gives us.

Trip Insurance

We strongly encourage you to purchase trip insurance. Trip cancellation insurance (you should also check on interruption, medical, and evacuation policies) can be purchased through your preferred insurance provider. Policies through Trawick International (Dog Tag Extreme and Dog Tag Extreme Plus) have offered good policies for heliskiing in the past.  Be sure the policy is for heli skiing and inquire about all possible scenarios – injury, flight delays, evacuation, weather delays, no fly days, or cancelling for personal reasons.
