About tickets and reservations
You can buy a point to point ticket for the Bernina Express, travel for free or discounted with a rail pass, or book a tour.
Note that you need to book your seats in advance. The reservation includes a supplement for the extra services of the Bernina Express.
You're not required to travel the full stretch from Chur to Tirano. The reservation fee varies by the season, and needs to be paid per traveler and single journey. The train and bus require separate reservations. The cheapest season is November through February. Reservations are usually available for travel dates up to mid December, as that's when the timetables are updated. Reservations for the next year become available around mid October.
