Be careful with SBB timetables
-
My wife and I stayed in Yvoire this past weekend. Come Sunday, it was time to go home to Coppet, so I went on the SBB app and booked a boat from Yvoire to Coppet. Bought 2 First Class tickets all the way to Coppet. When we boarded I asked the “deckhand” if they were going to Coppet and he said no, “only to Nyon and back to Yvoire”. Well, to our surprise he was right and I had a discussion with the girl in the kiosk in Nyon and she was no help as was the “deckhand”. My point, before what you buy off of the SBB app, please confirm with someone. It looks as though they’ll sell you anything! Maybe there’s a boat from Yvoire to Zurich they would sell you!
P.S. My wife and I have been living in Switzerland for over 2 years, so we know how the transportation system works. Also, if you need help with something that they messed up on, good luck! If it’s not part of their job description, they’re useless in trying to help. That mindset is pretty much the whole country wide too.
