Swiss Travel Pass discount for trip in June?

Short summary – read this first

A traveler named neelpatel is planning an 11-day trip to Switzerland with family at the end of June and wants to use the Swiss Travel Pass for train travel. They are curious about whether there are any discounts available for the pass during this period before making a purchase.

Key takeaways:
  • Discounts for the Swiss Travel Pass may be available during the off-peak season, so it's best to wait a bit before buying it.

  • You can purchase the Swiss Travel Pass online and receive it via email, which allows you to print it at home.

    Hi neelpatel and Welcome to MySwissAlps,

    Yes discount offers sometimes occur in the between season period. Don’t be in a rush to buy they don’t run out and you don’t have to have the pass before making reservations (if you need such on panoramic trains for example).

    Any special deals will get announced on this forum.

    thank you Rockoyster. I will wait for pass and make reservation for Glacier express (Zermatt-Chur) and Golden pass route (Lucern-Interlaken) as you mention doesn’t required pass, just pay for reservation.

    Hi Rakubha,

    Last year I think it was in March/April, but we can’t say for sure if there will be again. As per rockoyster’s note any special deals will get announced on this forum. Alternatively you can check our promotions page here for updates. If you are buying the Swiss Travel Pass online, you can wait until a week before travel as it will be emailed to you to print at home (they say to give yourself 3 days for the order but it is usually instantaneous).
