Hi, I have research very long but I dont seem to get the answer. I am travelling to Swizeterland in October for holiday.

 

1. What is the different between GA and Swiss Pass? I am a tourist so I only can buy Swiss Pass right?

2. With the Swiss Pass and Half Fare Card - do both apply for train that are travelling from Interlaken to Milan?

3. SBB site - booking from Interlaken to Milan, there is GA 2 inclu 1/2/3 year option discount, is this the same as Swiss Pass Travel? 

 

4. Here is my schedue below, which option is my best saving travel card to buy? 

- Geneve Airport to city 

- Geneva city to Interlaken Ost

- Interlaken to Ginderwald

- Interlaken to Jungfrau

 

Thanks so much!

Hello @JaniceKiew

The minimum contract period of a GA is 4 months.
With the Swiss Half-Fare Card you can choose for the connection Interlaken- Milan the reduction 1/2/3 years with the SwissTravel Pass you can choose the reduction GA.

Hi,

 

So once i purchased the Swiss Travel Pass via this website http://swissth.mytraintravel.com/pass/swiss-travel-pass-82

Then how will the travel pass delivered to me?

 

Also, may i ask how does this Swiss Travel Pass works if i were to buy the 3 consecutive days?

 

Go by 24 hours x 3 days? Meaning i can activate in the afternoon on 1st day, then ends on the afternoon on the 4th day?
