Buying Swiss pass in Milan

Hi mikemike,

I wouldn't know whether it is available at the main train station in Milan. I don't expect it to be. May I ask where you are from? I assume you have checked all resellers and shipping options for your country at the Swiss Pass page? If you order through this Swissrailways.com page you have to option of delivery to any Swiss address (e.g. your hotel), which only takes 3 business days, or less if you pay for expedited delivery.

Hi mikemike,

For your information: you can get the Swiss Pass through this page of RailEurope Singapore and have it delivered in 2 business days, or even quicker: order it there and then collect it from the People's Park Centre in Singapore at no additional charge. All these options are listed at the Swiss Pass page as soon as you view the details of Rail Europe's offer.

I hope this helps. Enjoy your stay in Switzerland!

Hi,

I can't find the connection you're referring to. If I look at the schedule for tomorrow, EC12 departs from Milan at 7:10. Arrival in Lucerne is 10:41 with one change to IR2170 in Arth-Goldau. It looks like you can optionally switch to ICN10012 in Chiasso, but then you need to switch again in Arth-Goldau. So that's one more switch than necessary. I would not do that with kids and luggage.

In general: if the change is suggested by the timetable it is doable. Trains will depart on schedule but may wait if an important connecting train is delayed. No guarantees though.
