    Hi Raju,

    Welcome to MySwissAlps! Thank you for letting us know, it looks like they indeed extended this promotion to other countries too now, particularly GCC countries: https://www.raileurope -gcc.com/pass/swiss-travel-pass-82. Good thing for you is that they offer the extra days for 2nd class as well.

    I’ll update the above post. Thanks again!

    The extended dates and second class aren’t for US unfortunately.

    Indeed, just GCC. I’m not sure why they have the same promotion with different fine print for different countries, but that’s how it is at the moment.

    I would say raileurope website is pathetic. I am trying to book pass for 5 days since 5 days but always an error at some point.

    First it is insisting to have delivery option but in option nothing coming like print at home etc. Only saying take free delivery at Dubai office choice that option but again at payment page showing error that your session expired and booking not saved.

    I would say not good service from Raileurope website.

    I would book from other website rather than raileurope now.

    Thank you.

    Hi Arvind,

    That’s unfortunate, thanks for letting us know! Perhaps it does have something to do with your passport residency. I will pass this on to Rail Europe. You’ll find other purchase options here: http://www.myswissalps.com/sw isstravelpass/price.

    Hi guys, so… how can I get those 2 free days booking 8 days? Where do they appear? Do I need to conclude the purchase process? As nowhere in the process these free days are mentioned.
