    Hi Nadiah,

    Thanks for your post! I am not sure what you mean by buying 2 months before arrival. Today is the last day you can order a Swiss Travel Pass for September 18. From the UK, you can do so here: http://www.swisstravelsystem. co.uk/ en/node/66 (currently a 20% discount on 4- and 8-day passes). Select the “Online Ticket” option to print your pass at home. All pass retailers are listed here.

    After today it’s indeed too late to order online and you’d have to buy one in Switzerland for the local price.

    Does this help you out?
