Could someone please give me the dimensions of the Swiss Trave Pass? We plan to buy at the Zürich station when we arrive. I’d like to bring some sort of plastic cover for it. Open to suggestions.

There is a photo of one here: https://www.swissminiatur.ch/swissminiatur/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/csm_Swiss_Travel_Pass_Tickethuelle_42494f2151.jpg

That is the standard size for long distance train tickets in Europe, the same size as airline tickets used to be (if you remember them☺), printed on heavy paper. I think they give you a wallet to put it in, it shows one in the first photo. The funny blue/orange triangles on the background are used for train tickets in many countries in Europe.
If you buy your pass on the internet direct from the SBB, you get a "print at home" version which is the standard computer paper size (A4).

Thanks, Chris and Nigel. Yes, I do remember the plane tickets 🙂. I even have a few in my memory albums!

Nigel, it works for me. It is a Swiss tourist website, so there is no reason for it to be blocked.

What I see is a no entry road sign with the text - "STOP - this image has been hotlinked" and I doesn't let me go further. Maybe because I am in the UK?
