    Hi all,

    We have a Swiss pass for 2nd class.
    Do we need to reserve seats for the following trains? Will we not be able to get on train if we don’t reserve seats?

    1. Zurich to Luzern (2013-06-15 Saturday around 18:00)
    2. Luzern to Interlaken (Golden pass) (2013-06-16 Sunday around 18:00)
    3. Interlaken to Geneva (2013-06-18 Tuesday around 18:00)

    Thanks in advance!

    No reservation is required on these train you just need to show your Swiss saver passes to the Ticket checker.

    Why is it recommended to make reservations?
    What happens if the train is full and you do not have a reservation?
    When is it best to make reservations, if one chooses, ahead of time or when you arrive in Switzerland or right before the train?
    Was told the Bern to Zurich and Zurich to Innsbruck legs of the journey fill up in the summer especially on Sundays!
