The “Loon Express” is taking the Sugarbus we had an entry about a few weeks ago to the next level.

Loon Mountian, NH is teaming with New England Action Sports to offer a season long bus service from Providence/Boston starting on January 4th.

Long story short: This runs on both Fridays ($59.95) and Sundays ($69.95) and these prices include bus ride and a lift ticket (per person).

All passengers must make an advanced reservation by calling New England Action Sports at 1-800-477-SNOW (7669).

Keep reading for more details.


Below is the information from Loon with details. Take advantage of this…great deal.

The New ‘Loon Express’ Luxury Motor Coach Provides Twice Weekly Service and a Lift Ticket to New Hampshire’s Loon Mountain, Beginning January 4
Lincoln, N.H., December 6, 2008: Loon Mountain and New England Action Sports (NEAS) have partnered to create the new ‘Loon Express’ service, making Loon even more accessible this winter, at a great price.
The Loon Express luxury motor coach will leave from Providence, make several stops in Rhode Island and Boston before continuing to Loon Mountain Resort. Service is available non-holiday Sunday and Friday mornings beginning January 4, 2009.
The price, which includes round-trip motor coach transportation and an all-day lift ticket, is just $59.95 per person for Friday trips and $69.95 per person for Sunday trips.
All passengers must make an advanced reservation by calling New England Action Sports at 1-800-477-SNOW (7669).
The first stop on the Loon Express is the University of Rhode Island, starting at 5:30 a.m. The Express will then stop at the NEAS Parking Lot in Warwick; Brown University; Rhode Island School of Design; and then head to Boston.
Pick-up locations in Boston include the MBTA parking lot on Grove Street, St. Ignatius Church near Boston College in Chestnut Hill, and Boston University.
The Express will leave Loon Mountain at 4:30 p.m. to return skiers and riders back home to Boston and Providence.
Unlike many bus trips that are run to ski resorts, participants do not need to be part of a pre-existing ski club or group. Any individual, couple or small group can make a reservation and take the bus.

Hope some of you can take advantage of this or knows someone who can.
Let someone else drive,
S.G.
