When it comes to international travel, cancellation policies can be confusing at the best of times. So when times are a little uncertain, it is even more important to be very clear on what the policies are. At Scout, we’re here to help - we know the ins and outs across all the ski resorts, making it as simple as possible and with no hidden fees. Best of all, many of our lodging partners are offering free cancellations for the 26/27 season, giving you the most flexibility to book with confidence.

We've compiled a list of ski resorts with the best cancellation policies to help you make the right decision (and breath a little easier) when it comes to securing your next ski vacation. 

Note - Peak Festive dates such as Christmas and New Years Eve may have varying cancellation policies, however Scout will communicate these prior to booking.

EUROPE
Thinking of a European ski adventure?
Good news is that generally most hotels across the ski resorts offer free cancellation up to 30 days prior to arrival. 

ALL THE EXTRAS...
When it comes to lift passes, rentals, transfers and ski lessons, most suppliers offer free cancellations right up to a few weeks prior to arrival (between 7-14 days). It's better to have everything booked in early, especially lessons and guiding, and you have lots of flexibility to make changes before your itinerary is finalised. 

Ikon Pass
You can now add a 'refundable' option to your Ikon Passes - get a full refund when life (or weather) changes your plans. Pass holders who have not scanned their pass by January 15, 2027 can choose to get 100% cash back (or 50% cash back with a single scan).

Epic Pass
As with all Epic Pass products, Epic Coverage is included as standard at no additional cost, and protects you across multiple personal events (job loss, injury, sickness, etc).
