Round trip ticket Lauterbrunnen-Stechelberg bus

Short summary – read this first

A traveler named swisstravel9 is planning to use the 141 bus and train services and wants to know if their tickets allow hopping on and off during the day without needing to buy new ones. They’re specifically interested in day-long validity for round trip tickets on both buses and trains.

Key takeaways:
  • A return ticket for buses is typically valid for one round trip the whole day, allowing you to hop on and off at different stops.
  • You cannot repeat the same stretch of the route with a return ticket but can travel between different stops along the line.
  • For trains, a single or return ticket usually allows multiple travels on the same route within the day without needing to buy a new ticket each time.

    Hi,

    If i buy a round trip on 141 bus can i hop on and off on that day or do I need to buy ticket again after first time? Same question for train routes, if I buy a single or return ticket on a train, can I travel on same route multiple times that day, or do I need to buy a new ticket every time?

    Hi swisstravel9,

    Welcome to MySwissAlps.

    A return ticket is usually valid the whole day. You can use the same ticket to travel on the same route more than once.

    Hi Swisstravel9,

    A regular return bus ticket is valid all day, for 1 journey to and 1 journey from your destination. In your case, for example, you can use it for 1 journey Lauterbrunnen-Stechelberg and 1 journey Stechelberg-Lauterbrunnen.

    This means you can get out during the route and hop on again on a later bus with the same ticket. But as far as I know you’re not allowed to repeat stretches. You’ll have to board a bus at the same stop at which you got off, or a stop farther along the line. So you can’t use a return ticket for unlimited trips during 1 day.
