Promotion must-knows

- Swiss Travel Pass: all other details
The promotion only applies to 1st class 4-day and 8-day Swiss Travel Pass for adults and youths. So, this excludes:
- 2nd class passes
- Swiss Travel Pass Flex
- all other passes and tickets
Is this promotion worth it?
Yes, if:
- you’re planning to travel for 5 to 10 days in 1st class anyway.
- you’re considering 1st class but weren’t sure. This makes it cheaper! With the 5-day pass you’ll save CHF 23 every day. With the 8-day pass, you’ll save CHF 17 each travel day.
No, if:
- you’re happy with 2nd class travel.
- you’re traveling for 1 to 4 days, or more than 10-12 days.
If you travel for 11 or 12 days, the 8+2 day promo pass might still be worth it. But note that a regular 15-day pass is only slightly more expensive, so that’s often the better option.
Swiss Travel Pass Promotion FAQ
-
Is the promotion also available for 2nd class?
No, it’s only for 1st class.
-
What if I don’t travel for exactly 5 or 10 days?
You don’t have to use all travel days. If you travel for more than 10 days, the 15-day Swiss Travel Pass is likely your best option.
-
What’s included in the promotion pass?
You get all the free and discounted travel and museum access just like the normal Swiss Travel Pass. You’ll find all details here.
-
Is 1st class worth it?
It is if you prefer more space and a quieter trip. But, 2nd class is fine as well, and often better if you travel with children. About the difference between 1st and 2nd class: https://www.myswissalps.com/travel/train/classes/
-
Can I get the free travel days on another pass?
No, this promotion only applies to 4- and 8-day 1st class Swiss Travel Passes.
