    Hi
    We are arriving at Zurich airport in July and plan to travel to the Murren area for a week so thought the Bernese Oberland pass would be the best option, Can we buy this before we arrive and if so, where would we collect it at the airport or the railway station? I guess we would have to buy a ticket to Lucerne before the pass could be used.

    Hi davenz3,

    You can buy the pass here. You can have it sent to your home address or collect it at the airport train station. Indeed, you need to have a point to point ticket to either Bern or Lucerne, and from there you can use your pass. All pass details can be found here.

    Hi
    Thanks for your reply. Then we can wait until we arrive in Zurich and buy the Bernese Oberland pass at the airport train station. along with our point to point ticket to Lucerne. Can we pay for those with our credit cards?

    Hi davenz3,

    You can collect the pass at the train station if you order it in advance through the given link. In many cases, regional tickets and passes are only available at stations in that particular region, so I’m not sure if you can just get it at the airport train station without ordering in advance. Lucerne is within the region, so you should be able to get it there if you don’t order in advance. You can pay with credit cards.
