I purchased the 8 day swiss pass–1st cl–as did two of our traveling companions taking advantage of the 50% off. I subsequently noted on your forum that this offer might only be valid for families traveling with children. Since the fee has already been charged to my credit card, what options do I have? When I completed the form for the pass, there was no requirement to list children. I am now quite confused. Does this offer require that children be present? Considering that my credit card has been charged, what changes could I do?
Hi bneuschatz,
I’m sorry to hear that. This offer is indeed specifically for families with children. This is what Rail Europe states on their offer page: “IMPORTANT – If parents/legal guardian are not present with their children at the time of validation, pass will not be validated by conductors”. I assume this statement was on that page when you ordered, but I’m not 100% sure about that. I would advice to contact RailEurope and explain what happened. They are be able to solve this one way or the other. It may be necessary to cancel this order and order the regular pass again, but please contact them first to see what options are available.
Let me know if this works out well for you!
