This implies prices go up after March 14, but could be tricky wording as the lowest prices could continue after the 14th and not be inconsistent with the wording. I really dislike this tricky marketing stuff. Guess we'll know more in two days, but maybe not the complete story.

Did the Affirm thing with Ikon a few years back and agree they are pain - also the 0% is only if you have decent credit, lots of Ikoners in the FB group complained about getting a high interest rate.

From what I can tell it looks like the Gold Pass renewal went up $60 from last years early discount flash "sale". Does anyone know the answer to this...What happens if I currently have a Silver and upgrade to a Gold, do they consider that a "renewal"? And what about the opposite going from Gold down to Silver, Is that a renewal? Trying to figure out if you get the "Renewal" rate or the "New" rate ?
Also noticed there appears to be a typo in the blackout dates they list 13 days but state 12 blackouts....I think they accidentally included 12/25 as a blackout (and normally it is not IIRC)

Looks like both Gold prices are $60 higher than the starting prices last year.
Relatively sure that as long as you have a pass for this season in your profile then you can use renewal pricing for any new pass.

I upgraded from Silver this year to Platinum for next year (for the Ikon base pass, intending to travel a bit). Was given renewal rate without a hitch.
As with others, I bailed on Affirm once I got a few clicks into the process.

Saw a thread on the SR chat making the case for dropping down from platinum and buying silver along with full ikon. That way you don’t get the base blackouts and can use it when blacked out on silver at SL & SR, plus you get all the western resorts which are extra for base plus.

I wonder how many family’s will be disappointed by the new age restriction on the Nitro pass and not renew? I’ve been buying that for my kids since it was introduced in 19/20 as a 6-29 age pass. To renew with 4 Silvers will be $3,676 vs the $2,716 it would have been had the age group not changed. Disappointing.

Doesn’t seem all that tricky, especially if you are a returning customer since it is pretty much the same process year in and year out.
