I just purchased my seat reservations for the Bernina Express journey in September. I did this as a guest on the train site and did not register. When I go to purchase the tickets within two months of travel, I am not sure how the site knows that I already purchased my seat reservations.

I tried to do a “dummy” purchase for next month and it required me to purchase both a seat reservation and a fare. There was no way that I could see to indicate that I already had purchased a seat reservation.

If the site doesn’t let me do this; will I be able to go to the train station the day of the Bernina Express in Chur and show them my purchase order for seat reservations and then just purchase the train fare?

Thanks for your help.

PS I subsequently registered with the Rhaetian railway, but I don’t see how I can show my prior purchase.

Hello Djjr,

If you have a printout of your reservation you are done with the RHB website. You can buy a ticket at anytime on-line or at any station in Switzerland up to the time you board. Use the SBB Timetable (bit.ly/2HH1U7B) to buy your ticket on-line. If you are not familiar with using the timetable it will pay to first read the instructions on this page – http://www.myswissalps.com/ti metable.

You don’t need a ticket if you have a Swiss Travel Pass (for example).

Hi Djjr,

As Rockoyster said tickets can be purchased separately from seat reservations. Have a look at this link for more info: http://www.myswissalps.com/be rninaexpress/tickets

Have a great trip!

Maria.
