B.C. residents special returns

Whistler Mountaineer offering $99 rate for 2007 season

The popular B.C. residents’ special rate for the Whistler Mountaineer train is being offered again for a limited time as a thank you from Rocky Mountaineer Vacations for a successful first season.

The special $99 return fair for the 2007 season of the Whistler Mountaineer Coast Classic, or $169 for the Glacier Dome class, is available until Dec. 24, or until seats are sold out.

The Whistler Mountaineer runs daily between North Vancouver and Whistler from May to mid-October. In 2006, the first year of service, passenger numbers exceeded projections, and the special fare for B.C. residents was very popular.

“This is by far the best price that will be available for the Whistler Mountaineer in 2007 and based on the success of the offer last spring it will sell out quickly, so B.C. residents should book early," James Terry, executive V.P. and COO of Rocky Mountaineer Vacations, said in a release. "This special rate has arrived just in time for the holiday season and offers a wonderful way for British Columbians to be tourists in their own backyard."

The Internet special is open to B.C. residents only and must be booked as a round trip online between now and Dec. 24, 2006. A booking fee of $10 per person applies for reservations made by phone.

Rates for children between 2 and 11 years old are $49 return for the Coast Classic experience and $99 return for the Glacier Dome.

The B.C. Residents’ Special is subject to availability at the time of booking and not available in conjunction with any other offer.   Check the Website for full details and conditions.
