QUESTIONS:
1. Is REGIONAL BO PASS still the most economical option, or you would advice HALF-FARE PASS (tried the trip calculator but I fail myself to determine the right choice)?
2. With REGIONAL BO PASS or HALF-FARE PASS, do I have to buy STP ?
3. For 12-16 years old, do I have to buy JUNIOR TRAVEL CARD or SWISS FAMILY CARD? And do I pay any sum towards that purchase?
4. For 18 year old, do I buy Swiss Youth Pass, or just the REGIONAL BO PASS?
Again, many thanks in advance.
