Best way to purchase half fare card
A family traveling from the USA is planning a trip to Switzerland in October, staying in Wengen for the entire duration. They are inquiring about whether to buy their Swiss Half Fare Card at the Zurich airport or online in advance. Helpful advice on the best purchasing options was provided by forum members.
- Purchase the Swiss Half Fare Card online in advance for the best deal, considering shipping times of up to 8 business days.
- Look into the Swiss Transfer Ticket Combi for a potentially cheaper and more convenient option, which must also be purchased in advance.

My family is traveling from the USA to Switzerland in October. We have determined the half fare card is the best deal for us as we fly into Zurich and then intend to stay in Wengen for our entire trip. Should we purchase our half fare card at the airport when we arrive or buy it online in advance? Thank you for your assistance.
