The court-approved website for the Sierra-at-Tahoe class action settlement can be found at SierraClassAction.com.
The deal covers all consumers who purchased a single-day Sierra-at-Tahoe ski-lift ticket online for any of the following dates but could not use it because the resort’s onsite parking lots were full:
- December 12, 14, 18, 19 or 29, 2020;
- January 9, 30 or 31, 2021; or
- February 6, 13 or 20, 2021.
According to the Sierra-at-Tahoe ski-lift ticket settlement website, guests who already received a full refund, ticket voucher or resort credit are not included as class members.
To receive Sierra-at-Tahoe settlement benefits—which include a cash refund or a single-day lift-ticket voucher—class members must submit a valid claim form online or by mail by June 24, 2025.
You can file a Sierra-at-Tahoe settlement claim form online on this page, or you can download a PDF claim form to print, complete and return by mail to the settlement administrator, Apex.
To submit a claim form electronically, you will need to provide your unique Apex ID—typically found on the settlement notice issued about the deal—and your last name.
After filing a claim form, consumers will receive a confirmation email, at which point they can opt for either a cash refund of the amount they paid for the unused Sierra-at-Tahoe ticket or a voucher good for one single-day lift ticket, the website says.
The voucher is valid for three ski seasons beginning this season and is currently valued between $83 and $140, court documents state.
The site notes that proof of purchase is not required to submit a claim or receive a Sierra-at-Tahoe settlement rebate.
The court will decide whether to grant final approval to the settlement agreement at a hearing on July 10, 2025. Refunds or vouchers will be issued to eligible class members only if the deal receives ultimate approval, and after any appeals are resolved.
