    I read that we can book the Saver day pass 60 days in advance. I am trying to book for 17.03.2019 which is exactly 60 days from today. However, the webpage says “Your selected date of travel is not within the advanced booking period”. Are the passes available for sale only after a specific time like 9:00am? I tried booking today at around 7:15am Zurich time.

    Thanks

    Hi Rarunonline, welcome to MySwissAlps!

    It’s now half an hour later and I didn’t ran into the issue you described. Can you try again? Purchase options can be found here: http://www.myswissalps.com/sa verdaypass/price.

    If it does not work, please let us know what kind of pass you’re trying to buy (class, discounted or not).

    I hope it works now!

    Hey sorry,

    Unable to book for 18.03.2019 which is 60 days from today. Trying for the reduced fare with the Half-Fare travelcard, IInd class. Sorry for the confusion.

    regards,

    arun

    Give it a day. Time zones can play tricks. In Australia I can buy now for 17 but not 18 March. Best price is CHF29, hang out for that.

    Hi Arun,

    Same issue here, in the Switzerland time zone. Please try again tomorrow. I’m 99% sure it will work then. They say 60 days but their system may actually calculate with 2 months or so.

    Usually you cannot buy on what you think is ‘your travel date minus 60’. The system will normally trigger one day after
