    I have reserved 2 seats, 1st class, Chur to Brig in June, I have a global pass.

    This allows free journey Chur/Disentis, do I need a ticket or just show my pass? Can I then just buy a ticket Disentis/Brig without another reservation?

    Regards Ian Lord

    Hi Ian,

    Is it a Eurail Global Pass that you have? In that case you’re right, you need to buy a ticket from Disentis to Brig and you will get a 25% discount on that. You don’t need a ticket for Chur to Disentis because you have a pass that covers that leg. Also you don’t need another reservation.

    Enjoy the ride!

    Thanks Arno, you confirmed my thoughts which is reassuring. The pass is a Flexi Global Pass, 5 days in 10.
