    We leave from Spain to Switzerland in a week and we would like to purchase two Half Fare Tickets and pick them up from Zurich airport. I cannot find where I enter in the order that I need to collect at Zurich airport or is it better to have them emailed to me? If that is the case how do I print them off?

    “The itinerary had great detail and a good choice of activities in each location. Very helpful to group things that can be done in the same day. Love that the options are linked to the website.”

    Hi Robscho,

    You’ll find all purchase options on this page. The easiest and quickest way is to print the cards yourself: visit http://www.swissrailways.com/ en and click to the Swiss Half Fare Card. After filling out your address, they show the delivery options. Pick “Online Ticket” from the bottom of the list. They will e-mail the cards within 1-3 business days (often just 1 day), so you can print them at home. You can choose collection at the airport too, but that takes more time because you will have to visit a ticket office, and it costs slightly more.

    Did it work for you now?
