Planning for out-of-state trips Airlines and New Policies I believe that almost everyone is aware of the security changes being implemented at airports. However other changes in airline bookings are also in play. Airlines policies have set new limitations on how passenger seats are held, including “blocks” of seats held by tour groups. These policies are dictating changes in the way we book the FSC out of state and international ski trips. Under Airlines 90/90 policies, carriers are requiring that 90% of group “blocked” seats be held with a “passenger’s name” 90 days prior to departure, or the open seats will be dropped. Fading like the snow in spring are the days that we could wait until the last minute to signup for discounted long distance trips with air fare. While this does not mean that we can not add passengers, it affects the cost! Any new seats will be offered by the airlines based on current availability and prices. Bottom line! If you want to participate, you need to plan now … not later Look at your calendar early and mark your trips and vacation time. If you can’t get to a meeting, the FSC website has all the forms for Trips, Policies and Membership. Download the forms and mail with your payment: www.fresnoskiclub.com/clubdocs.htm Plan financially, the FSC breaks the trip price into 3 or 4 small deposits. Put your deposit down early; if you need to, use your credit card. You can call the trip chair for "access passwords" for online payments in the members section. Visa, Master card, Discover card, American Express and Paypal are accepted. The Fresno Ski Club’s Board of Directors works hard to pick the best destinations and the best prices for our members but we need your support to keep it that way! See you on the slopes, Thank You!

TRIP CHAIRS It is not too early to be thinking about next year's ski season and the Club's need for able bodied volunteers to serve as trip chairs. Serving as a trip chair is an excellent way to get to know more members, serve a vital role for the Club, and receive substantial savings on the cost on your own trip. If you would like to learn more about being a trip chair, please contact: Winter Activities Director winter@fresnoskiclub.com | ||
