F.A.Q.

Will Brewster pay my travel expenses to get to the Banff Gondola?

Banff Gondola expects that all staff members can find their own way to Banff and does not pay travel expenses.

Why do you have appearance guidelines?

Banff Gondola serves an international clientele with various cultural backgrounds and tastes and sets itself apart from other attractions with it's professional image. This conservative image includes good grooming and proper dress. Appearance is a very personal thing, but it is important that fashion styles do not draw the guests attention away from the total Canadian Rockies experience.

How do I get to work from the staff accommodations?

Banff Gondola staff are provided with a Brewster ID that will allow you complimentary travel on Banff Transit to Sulphur Mountain. The shuttle service operates every 30 minutes allowing for flexibility to get to and from work. The gondola is roughly 10 Km away from staff accommodations.

I have never been to the Canadian Rocky Mountains before and would like to see as much of them as possible while I am working there. How can I do this?

Brewster has many sightseeing tours that are specifically designed to share the splendor of the Rockies with our guests. Staff may join any of these tours for free on a space available basis by obtaining a pass from their supervisor.
