This means if you've already purchased your pass, you have until October 31, 2025 to add Spot's Pass Protection and be covered. After October 31, 2025, Spot's Pass Protection coverage can only be purchased at the time of pass purchase and cannot be added on at a later time.

What happens if I need to use my Spot Pass Protection?

We ask that you notify Spot in writing of your plans to use your Pass Protection within 20 days of the unforeseen event occurring by logging into your Spot account and answering a few quick questions.

When am I covered?

If you purchase a plan to protect your pass, your plan is in effect starting from the day after we receive your payment for your Pass Protection up until the last day of the season as listed on your enrollment document or itinerary. This means you’re eligible for up to a 100% reimbursement of your pre-paid expenses for your ski pass if you have a covered claim.

If the covered event occurs after December 12, 2025, the reimbursement amount prorates daily from December 12, 2025 through May 30, 2026. This is considered the Interruption period.
