You pay a premium for the flexibility of the Flex version but with the 15-day Pass it is only CHF50 and that may be worth it.

With the consecutive Pass you just use it. With the Flex you need to activate it for each of the 15 travel days you select. See http://www.myswissalps.com/swisstravelpassflex.

It all depends on your itinerary. If you have little or no travel on one or two days at either end of your trip then a continuous pass may work for you.

Hi Punit shah01,

I believe you have already used the spreadsheet (http://www.myswissalps.com/train/ticketspasses/practical/chooserailpass) to calculate all of your travel costs, right? It depends on your travel itinerary, which one is better for you. If you have no travel days (no cable cars, no trains, boats etc) in the middle of your itinerary, then the Swiss Travel Pass Flex might be better for you. (Note, that you can also visit over 500 museums for free with the Swiss Travel Pass and the Swiss Travel Pass Flex: http://www.myswissalps.com/swisstravelpass/details).

You can read about how to use the Swiss Travel Pass Flex at http://www.myswissalps.com/swisstravelpassflex/howtouse and similar info about the Swiss Travel Pass can be found at http://www.myswissalps.com/swisstravelpass/howtouse.

Just to add to Ildiko’s excellent advice, don’t fall into the trap of thinking you can use the Flex pass for anything at all (eg museum entry) on a non-travel day. You can’t. You would need to activate it and use up a travel day even if all you wanted to do was visit a museum.
