Bernina Express: Swiss Travel Pass & reservations
-
Hi,
I have a few questions as follow:-
1) I have reserved 5 first class seats on 26 June 2023, train 973 and time of departure 13:17 St Moritz to Tirano. However , we prefer to take train 971 departing 09:17 from St Moritz to Tirano. Currently, all the 1st class seats are reserved for train 971. No seat is available. Can I change to train 971 when there are seats available when someone cancel the reservation? and what is the chance? Do I need to pay a fee to change the train?
I noticed that currently I only reserved 5 seats on 26 June 2023. Am I correct to say that I’m required to buy the train ticket for St Moritz to Tirano when it is opened for booking (currently it is not).
If the 5 travellers have Swiss Travel Pass, do not still need to buy the train ticket from St Moritz to Tirano?
If yes, we have to buy the train ticket, how do we use the Swiss Travel Pass to get a discount for the train ticket from St Moritz to Tirano?
If no, how do I get the Bernina Express train tickets confirmation online with our Swiss Travel Pass?
It seems like the first thing to do is to get a seat reservation confirmation on Bernina Express before anything else. I would like to ask a silly question. for example, is it possible that I have a seat reservation on train 971 departing 09:17 from St Moritz to Tirano and not able to buy the train ticket as it is fully booked or vice versa having the train ticket but no seat avaiable.
Does the seat reservation system works the same for both Bernina Express and Glacier Express? I also have the same problem of not getting 1st class on a particular day on Glacier Express and have to get a 2nd class (not window seat ) and my group of 5 travelers are scattered around the wagon.
Thanks
.
