    Hi ckchoy,

    The Swiss Family Card is a free add-on for children of adults who buy the Swiss Travel Pass or Swiss Half Fare Card.

    Once you have the Swiss Family Card your child travels free on all routes (even if you have to pay with your rail pass).

    Hi Lucas,

    Normally I notice the term stated: With Junior Card and the Swiss Travel System family card, children up to 16 years, accompanied by a parent, travel for free. This means kid travel free, right?

    How about the below routes:

    Kleine Scheidegg — Jungfraujoch

    Alpnachstad — Pilatus Kulm

    Interlaken HarderBahm — Harder Kulm

    Thanks.

    Hi Ckchoy,

    As long as you as an adult are traveling with the Swiss Travel Pass or Swiss Half Fare Card, your children will travel for free at all times. That includes the routes you mentioned.
