Hello james54,
I would suggest to consider the 8-day Swiss Travel Pass (consecutive days) instead of the Swiss Travel Pass Flex. That one is cheaper and will work out better even if you would not use it on day one and buy a regular ticket from the airport to Lucerne. The pass includes free traveling to Wengen, and to Mürren by train and bus/cable car. Schilthorn is 50% off and Jungfraujoch is 25% off. All the details are on myswissalps.com/swisstravelpass.
The Swiss Half Fare Card is the alternative to look into. With that, you can buy 50% discounted tickets every day, for up to one month.
The last alternative I want to suggest is a combination of a Tell-Pass and a Regional-Pass Bernese Oberland. Those passes include nearly everything for free in both regions, so very much worth it if you plan to travel a lot.
To find out which option is better, please follow these instructions. Let me know what you think, or if you have any questions!
