Swiss Travel Passes

Posted by (Castle Rock, Colorado) on

I will be traveling in Sept., 2024. The Switzerland part of my trip will begin at Basel SBB. While I am staying with a friend I will be taking a couple of short day-trips to Appenzell, Lake Constance. I have been trying to make sense of the Swiss Travel Pass or the Half Fare Card or the Jungfrau Region Card. It is all so confusing to me. I am not inclined to visit museums. Should I buy a pass or passes or just buy point-to-point tickets as needed? Any advice would be appreciated.

9/13 - Train from Basel SBB to Urnasch, Switzerland
9/14 - Urnasch
9/15 - Urnasch
9/16 - Urnasch
9/17 - Train to Interlaken
9/18 - Travel to Murren
9/19 - Murren
9/20 -Train to Luzern
9/21 - Luzern
9/22 -Train to Winterthur
9/23 -Train to Zurich ZRH

Looking at your Itinerary just buy the Half Fare Card and use that with your point to point tickets as needed.

I don't understand why you listed Interlaken and Muerren separately. Why not go straight to Muerren. Same with Winterthur. You can easily make your flight from Luzern, its only just over 1 hour. Unless you enjoy checking in and out of hotels.

I am spending one night in Interlaken, so Urnasch to Interlaken. I just want to. I know I could go on to Murren if I wanted to.
I am spending one night in Winterthur, so Luzern to Winterthur. I just want to. I prefer to be a bit closer to the airport.
