    Hi.

    I want to buy Swiss half fare card with effective date of tomorrow 31 Jan 2016. But I can’t buy it through the system as I can’t fill up the card validity date on 31 Jan 2016. It’s only available starting fro 4 Feb. Please advise how I can buy this card.

    thanks.

    Welcome to MySwissAlps aryooetomo!

    It’s too late to buy a Swiss Half Fare Card online and print it at home. Orders need to be processed and e-mail, which takes a bit of time (this will hopefully change in the future). That’s why they don’t allow you to pick tomorrow as a travel date. You need to go to a staffed ticket office of a Swiss rail station and buy it there.

    Have a good trip. Enjoy your stay!

    thanks for your prompt reply Arno. will the price be the same (CHF 120 per pax) if I buy from the station in Geneve airport tomorrow 31st Jan 2016 for Swiss Half Fare card?

    Second 2nd is as I travel with my wife, is there any discounted price for purchasing the pass for 2 pax in one go?

    appreciate much your reply on this.
