Hi Arno,

If we decide to buy 4-day Italy Saver Pass and 4-day Swiss Saver Flexi Pass, is the Milan to Lugano trip free if we verify Swiss Flexi Pass before reach Lugano? Where to verify the Swiss Pass? Thank you very much.

Hi Chloe Lee,

Yes, that trip is free if you ask the conductor of that train to validate your pass before the Swiss border.

Enjoy your stay!
