What do I need to do if my club/council would like to attend?
All clubs and councils are required to meet the following attendance criteria: 1) club/council must book on their own at least one 5 to 7 day trip per year to a major North American ski resort; 2) the trip must have attendance of 25 people or greater; 3) the delegate from your club/council must be a trip decision-maker; and 4) you must be invited by the host destination. The invitations will go out in mid-December. If your club/council did not receive an invitation and would like to be considered, email your contact information and trip history (destinations and trip size) for the past two years to: talktous@mtntrvl.com.
Can two people from my club/council attend?
Sorry, only one trip decision-maker per club is eligible to attend. It is preferred that a Trip Chairman, Trip Committee member, President or Vice President attend. Any substitutions are subject to approval by host destination.
What is the deadline to register?
Applications must be received by January 20, 2008. There are a limited number of spots available and we sell out early every year, so we recommend you submit your application as soon as possible.
How do I arrange my air travel to MTS?
MTS will take care of booking and ticketing your air reservation. In your attendance application, you will be asked for your departure airport. You will need to plan for a full travel day on Wednesday and Sunday. Your airline ticket will be included in your confirmation packet which you will receive approximately two weeks prior to departure. Once ticketed, no changes may be made without the $100* penalty fee, for which you will be responsible. United Airlines is the official airline of the Mountain Travel Symposium.
*Airline change fees are subject to change.
Can I bring my spouse to MTS?
No. MTS is reserved for ski club/council decision-makers only.
I want to room with a particular person. May I request him/her?
Yes. Until January 20, 2008, you may make request a roommate by emailing your request to talktous@mtntrvl.com . Please note: Requests are not guaranteed and are up to the host resort.
