I am attaching the Bus C12 schedule below and would like to confirm my understanding:

https://www.asfautolinee.it/orari_pdf/estivo/C12.pdf

I want to do a day trip from Lugano to Menaggio and back on Saturday, June 1st.  Since it’s on Saturday, I believe I should be looking at the schedule for PUBLIC HOLIDAYS (FESTIVO ESTIVO).  If my assumption is correct, the earliest bus from Lugano to Menaggio is at 9:25 AM and the last bus from Menaggio to Lugano is at 5:35 PM.  Can someone please confirm my understanding?  Thank you.

Hi Shahed,

The timetable you have found is for summer 2023. (See the note “AREA LAGO – ESTIVO 2023” at the bottom of each page.)

The relevant timetable for 1 June 2024 is here: Timetable Winter 2023/24 valid from 12/09/2023 to 08/06/2024

For my understanding of what the various abbreviations mean, please see this post from some years ago:

https://www.myswissalps.com/community/thread/bus-stop-in-lugano-stazion-nord-or-autosilo/#post-867581

Saturdays are included in Fer6, unless the Saturday is a public holiday. Saturday 1 Jun 2024 is not a public holiday – but the following day, Sunday 2 Jun, is in fact a public holiday: Festa della Repubblica (Republic Day).

Hope this helps!

Alpenrose555:  Thank you for the correct bus schedule link and explanation about Fer6.  The schedule now makes total sense.

May I ask a related question about Mid Lake Como ferry schedule?  I came across two schedule for passenger/car ferries but they only go out to May 26th.  How can I get the schedules for June 1st and beyond?

Hi Shahed,

Our forum and website is geared towards travel within Switzerland.  You’ll need to post your question elsewhere I am afraid. Perhaps there is an Italian equivalent – I am not sure.

Good luck.

Kind regards,

Yolanda
