Epic Coverage does not provide a refund for quarantines or travel advisories that apply to your home. Epic Coverage provides refunds if you are unable to use your pass during the Core Season (Decemver 7 through April 17) because the municipality, county, state, province, or country in which your permanent residence is located is subject to a mandatory governmental “stay-at-home” or “shelter-in-place” order lasting thirty (30) or more consecutive days, at least seven (7) days of which are during the Core Season.

Please see Epic Coverage Terms and Conditions for full details.

 

 

How is my Epic Coverage refund determined?

Epic Coverage provides refunds for certain resort closures that occur during the Core Season (December 7 through April 17) due to disease, war, terrorism, and covered natural disasters. If a Qualifying Resort Closure occurs, refund eligibility and amount will vary based on the type of Pass your purchase, your Epic Coverage elections, and the number of days you use your Pass.

If a Qualifying Personal Event prevents you from being able to use your pass, you may be eligible for a refund. Your refund eligibility and amount will vary based on the type of Pass you purchase, your Epic Coverage elections, and the number of days you use your Pass.

The use of your Pass at Partner Resorts or outside of the Core Season, including early season use of EDGE Cards (or other products with similar offerings), will count towards the number of days you have used your Pass for purposes of determining the amount of any refund for which you may be eligible.

Please see the Epic Coverage Terms & Conditions for terms and limitations on refund coverage, as well as details on refund eligibility and amounts.

 

How do I follow up on the status of a pending refund request?

Please call 1-877-895-1297 and reference your existing refund request number to follow up on a pending refund request.

  

purchased multiple Passes and received an Epic Coverage refund under one of the Passes. What happens next?

The Pass for which you received the refund will cease to be valid and you will no longer be able to use the Pass to access any resorts or receive any other ancillary Pass benefits for the remainder of the ski and ride season. The other Passes will remain active.

Please note, guests who purchased multiple Passes and received a refund under one of the Passes will notice their Epic Coverage elections for all other Passes reverted to the default "Core Season" and "All Resorts" elections, even if the guest made specific Epic Coverage elections. You are able to update or change your elections for all valid Passes until the Epic Coverage election deadline.

Please see Epic Coverage Terms and Conditions for full details.
