By GlobalDataMy Epic Assistant is available for the 2024/25 winter season (December to February), initially supporting four Colorado resorts – Beaver Creek, Vail Mountain, Breckenridge, and Keystone.
Vail Resorts is also planning to expand this technology to additional resorts in the future seasons.
Vail Resorts chief information officer Chris Smith said: “With the recent advancements in AI, we see an opportunity to provide real-time guest service so skiers and riders can navigate their day at our mountain resorts with confidence, efficiency and ease.”
The introduction of My Epic Assistant follows Vail Resorts’ recent launch of Mobile Pass and Mobile Lift Tickets, which allows guests to purchase their passes online, activate them on their smartphones, and access the lifts hands-free using Bluetooth.
Both Mobile Pass and Mobile Lift help in streamlining the guest experience and contribute to environmental sustainability by reducing plastic and RFID chip waste.
The My Epic app, now enhanced with My Epic Assistant, already offers features such as lift line wait times, interactive trail maps, and real-time mountain conditions.
Vail Resorts plans to further develop the assistant’s capabilities in the future, including proactive, personalised recommendations and always-on booking support, tailored to each guest’s preferences and itinerary.
