Hi Arno,
That's bad news about changes to the passes! I love the flexibility provided by the Swiss Travel Pass, and the reintroduction of the longer-duration passes would be wonderful.
To get best value from costly airfares from Australia to Europe, my trips tend to be at least a month. In the past, I have divided that time between several countries, with the duration of my time in Switzerland planned to make best use of one of the Swiss Travel Passes.
However, like many others in this forum, having discovered the beauty of Switzerland, the accessibility of mountain tops and glaciers etc, the wonderful public transport system and the comprehensive nature of Swiss Travel Passes, Switzerland is now top of my list for European holidays. That is why I am spending the whole of my 6-week holiday this year in Switzerland, as well as visiting again at Christmas as part of a trip including other countries. This year I can make use of the Swiss Travel Pass Flex Combi to help keep travel relatively affordable. I'm disappointed that that won't be an option for any future trips. I can't imagine visiting Europe again without including Switzerland.
