    Good Morning! We are traveling on the Bernina Express today, spending the night in Chur. On Friday, 8/12, we are headed to Luzern. Since we can’t check in to our hotel till 3 pm, I thought perhaps it would be wise to leave our luggage at the train station and head to Pilatus from there Rather than go into Luzern, eave our bags at the hotel, and make the trek back to the train station. Any thoughts or suggestions on this?

    Hi Zanoffc,

    Sure, you can do so. You can even leave your luggage in the lockers at the station so you don’t loose time. Further information is here: myswissalps.com/ pilatus.

    I’ve attempted to order tickets to Pilatus on this site but the date (tomorrow) did not show as being available. Is this possible? Or am I looking at it wrong?

    Hi Carol,

    It’s too late to ship tickets, you’ll need to buy them locally.

    Enjoy the trip!
