Whistler, British Columbia (PRWEB) May 22, 2007 -- Six YVR FasTrack self serve check-in kiosks were installed throughout Whistler allowing resort guests to check-in for flights at Vancouver International Airport (YVR) more quickly and avoid line-ups at the airport. Whistler represents the first municipality outside of Vancouver and Richmond to introduce the program which is resonating with guests - to date, more than 1,500 parties in Whistler have checked in for flights via the kiosks.
The kiosks, which provide all guests to the resort with free check-in access to multiple airlines, are currently located at the Whistler Visitor Centre and various hotels throughout Whistler Village.
With record-breaking snowfalls in the early season and outstanding snow conditions throughout the winter, guests are quickly booking Whistler accommodations. ResortQuest Whistler has several vacation packages and specials for travelers looking for a day on the slopes, on the golf course or looking to take in one of Whistler's many events. Guest can take advantage of Whistler rentals, Early Bird Rates for next season or our Stay and Spa Getaway Package and Sizzling Summer Specials starting in May through the summer months.
This past season, Whistler Blackcomb surpassed the average annual snowfall of 33 feet to receive a total of more than 42 feet of snow overall. Whistler Mountain is now closed for the season but Blackcomb Mountain is open for spring skiing until July 29th!
