-
Hello anjujain,
Please note that the 2-for-1 offer is only available for traveling in Spring or Fall. But you can use the regular Swiss Saver Pass. If you just fill out Belgium, the correct pass type and number of travelers in the upper right corner of the Swiss Pass page, you’ll get an overview of all the options and prices. Purchasing in Switzerland (e.g. Luzern) is listed there as well, as well as purchasing from the NMBS: the Belgian Railways (b-europe.com). That’s slightly cheaper. If you purchase through the NMBS, you can collect your pass at the rail station in Brussels, so you’ll have it in time. The NMBS does not issue the Swiss Family Card to allow your children to travel along for free. Just purchase a pass for the 2 adults, and you’ll get your free Swiss Family Card at any Swiss rail station.
Enjoy your stay!
Hello
I just booked my swiss flexi passes (2 for 1 promotion), through the australian site – http://www.raileurope.com.au. There was no request for a start date to be input anywhere. Just stated the valid travel dates are 01/09/2012-30/11/2012. I am hoping that I didn’t miss anything out, as I thought I had to state the date of the first day of free travel and the month starts from there. Also it seemed to suggest that the tickets were due to arrive in 5 days – yet we are not travelling till September 2012.
Hi BRONOZ,
This all sounds correct. You may have read about filling out a start date and postponed shipping, but that applies to other resellers than Rail Europe Australia. The start date will be set when you validate your pass at a Swiss rail station.
Have a great trip!

Thank you for replay,
Ok in case of my travel dates at july . What is the best swiss ticket cost for my plan ?
Thank you
Hello zedan22. I suggest you consider a 3 day Swiss Saver Flexi Pass, using free travel days on July 17, 19 and 20 and discounts on July 18. An alternative is the Swiss Half Fare Card, but that requires you to buy 50% discounted tickets for each trip during your stay.
Hi Annika,
The 2 for 1 Swiss Saver promotion, is it a yearly promotion? Because I’m planning the trip for 2013.[quote]Annika said: Hello zedan22.

I have question about 4 day Swiss Saver Flexi Pass , my dates traveling from 15th July to 20th July .
can i benefit from the promotions ? or i will buy it as regular price ?Thank you.
Kind regards
Hello zedan! Did you check the initial post of this topic? All specifics on the 2 for 1 offer are mentioned there, including validity dates. The 2 for 1 offer is not valid for traveling in July, so I still think you should consider a 3 day Swiss Saver Flexi Pass or Swiss Half Fare Cards.
im planning to travel from interlaken to lucerne and from lucerne to engelberg would the half fare pass be cheaper or the 4 day flexi pass
Hi aditi,
You don’t need any pass if you just make two single trips. Is that really all you’ll be traveling? If there are more trips, you can best calculate which of the two passes would be more economical. The 2-for-1 offer on the Swiss Saver (Flexi) Pass is the better choice in most cases.
hi,
we will be visiting switzerland from 17th august 2012, will be reaching in the evening of 17th,, will be leaving on 26th early morning,
we have ordered for flexi pass for 6 days duration starting from 18th, for 2 of us and we have reservation for glacier express,but what about JUngenfrau express, do we have to reserve early or can we get on the train with pass paying the the discounted amount
and how can we buy the flexipass for the remaining trip or is it necessary because we will be traveling one way to zurich fro st moritz and next day we are leaving
i would appreciate your guidance in this regard
with warm regards

Hi vijay, and welcome to MySwissAlps,
You don’t need to book the Jungfraujoch trip in advance. Just show your Swiss Flexi Pass at a rail station to get your discounted tickets.
I don’t understand your second question. Please elaborate on that, or even better: open a new topic since the current topic is about a promotion you’re not using.
Hi, I would like to check if I’m going to switzerland on 27/11/12 to 2/12/12. Is this promotion beneficial to me? If I’m interested to buy the Swiss flexi pass, can I use the pass on either 1/12/12 or 2/12/12? If not, am I entitled the 50% fare reduction in December?
Thank you.Hi, My family (2 adult and 5 year old kid) will be travelling to switzerland in August. Will I be able to buy and use the swiss saver pass 2 for 1 for our trip. As the information I am getting from raileurope website is a bit confusing as it says we have to use the second pass from september to november. Please clarify. We will be travelling for 4 days consecutively.
Thanks
