Which seat is best in GoldenPass Express Prestige Class?

Queenie · 2024-08-05T02:08:09+02:00

Hello I am in the middle of booking a seat on the prestige class golden pass express and wondering if seat 23 is a better option then seat 12 in coach 10. I’m assuming that the seat the system selects is the best option?? What would be my best option: 18 12 or 23? Seat 23 faces backwards and is a aisle seat whereas 12 is a window seat on the left side and the first row.

Short summary – read this first

A traveler is trying to choose between seat 12 and seat 23 on the GoldenPass Express. After some back-and-forth on the best choice, they ultimately decide on seat 12, but experience issues with the billing address selection during booking. Eventually, they successfully secure the seat after switching devices.

Key takeaways:

Choose seat 12 for a better view since it offers a window seat in the first row.
If you encounter billing issues when booking, try using a different device to resolve technical glitches.
Consider the Swiss Travel Pass if you plan to explore other destinations by train during your trip.

I personally would go for seat 12.

I note (with pleasure!) that you now seem to have found a train with seats available!

Yeaaah… finally have my seat 12 booked. My PC would not allow me to scroll down the countries for the billing. However I finally tried on my iPad with a success. It has taken me hours but persistence paid off.
