Details, details… crazymaking!
-
We are 5 skiers excited about a trip to Zermatt in 2011 March/April. Train and pass info is plentiful but confusing, so clarification will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Arrive AM March 22: We’ll take the train from Zurich airport to Zermatt.
Transfer AM April 1: We’ll take Glacier Express to St. Moritz
Return to Zurich April 2: We’ll take the train from St. Moritz to Zurich, and head to airport.3 days travel, 5 people on the same trains at the same time. Seems a Swiss Saver Flexi Pass is the perfect fit…. BUT what about these details?
1) ‘Saver Flexi Pass’ is a single ticket, so if 2 want first class tickets + 3 want second class tickets but we’re on the same train, can we split up? Do we need to sit together?
2) Does our ‘Saver Flexi Pass’ count toward 1 day of travel on the Glacier Express if it’s a private railroad?
3) Does our ‘Saver Flexi Pass’ get a discount on the Glacier Express tickets?
4) Do we book Glacier Express separately, but with acknowledgement that we have a ‘Saver Flexi Pass’?
5) Are there are no discounts for seniors on Swiss rail passes?
6) Booking is not open for April Glacier Express tickets at this time. There’s a different site for reservations. I’d like to keep everything coordinated within the Swiss Travel System– is that possible?
7) Any idea what date it becomes possible to book April 1 Glacier Express?Thanks for advice you may offer. Nice to find ‘experts’ online!
