Swiss Travel Pass 2024: What’s Included & What’s Not (& Is It Worth It)

By Author Jurga

Posted on Last updated: March 25, 2024

When planning a trip to Switzerland, you’ll likely see the Swiss Travel Pass mentioned everywhere.

But what exactly is the Swiss Travel Pass, what does it include, where can you buy it (hint – here ;)), and is it worth it?

We get so many questions from our readers about the Swiss Pass (and Swiss Pass Flex), which discounts it offers, and whether it covers some of the most popular destinations in the Swiss Alps. Many first-time visitors find it a bit confusing and I keep answering the same questions all over again…

So to save all of us some time, here is our complete guide to the Swiss Travel Pass. It should answer all your questions, give you a good overview of what exactly is included (and what is not), and help you decide whether it’s worth getting it for your trip.

What is the Swiss Travel Pass

The Swiss Travel Pass is a ticket for international visitors that includes unlimited travel on public transportation in Switzerland for a selected number of days. You can buy this pass for 3, 4, 6, 8, or 15 days of travel.

All the information is available on the official website of the Swiss Railways (SBB), but apparently, it’s still too confusing for many people (thus, this article).

TIP: You can also find the most important information in a nutshell and purchase the pass on GetYourGuide . We recommend this website for all tickets/tours/passes and we personally use it for all our trips, not just in Europe. It’s very simple to use.

Good to know: Traveling by train is the most convenient way to cover bigger distances in Switzerland and explore many of the nicest places in the country (not just cities, but also mountains). Furthermore, public transportation in Switzerland is very efficient and we sometimes joke that you can set your watch by how punctual the trains are. So for the majority of international visitors, it doesn’t even make sense to consider renting a car, and that’s what makes the Swiss Travel Pass so popular.

Below, you can find our explanation of what is and is not included with the Swiss Travel Pass, and how it differs from the Swiss Travel Pass Flex. Read on!

Swiss Travel Pass vs. Swiss Travel Pass Flex

To make things a bit more confusing, there are two types of Swiss Pass: the regular one and the Flex Pass , which is 15% more expensive.

What’s the difference? Both these passes include exactly the same tickets and offer the same discounts (that differ depending on your age). The main difference is that the flex pass allows you to freely choose on which days you use it within its month-long validity, whereas the regular pass is valid on consecutive days (depending on which validity you choose, 3, 4, 6, 8, or 15 consecutive days).

So, for example, you are visiting Switzerland for 5 days and you plan on traveling by public transport daily during your entire stay. In that case, you can simply get a regular pass for 5 days.

On the other hand, if you are in Switzerland for a longer time, but will be visiting different regions and spending a few days in each before traveling further, then it’s better to get a flexible pass. That way, you can use it only on those days when you will be taking public transportation a lot. Further below, you can find a bit more information about how to use both these passes.

Important to know! This is where it starts to get confusing to foreigners visiting Switzerland for the first time because they think that they will be using public transport every day, also in the mountains. But there is a big difference between let’s say an inter-city train between Zurich and Geneva or a train that brings you to Gornergrat in Zermatt or Jungfraujoch in Berner Oberland.

!!! The majority of gondolas, funiculars, and mountain trains are not part of the Swiss public transport network (and thus not included with the Swiss Travel Pass). However, to make things yet a bit more confusing, there are a couple of exceptions here too. You can find more info below, but first – how much does it cost.

How to use Swiss Travel Pass & Travel Pass Flex

For all passes , you can either print it on a white A4 paper or show an electronic version of the pass on your smartphone or tablet. You can also add it to your Apple Wallet, for example. Since the pass is issued in your name, you might be asked to show your ID as well.

Using the regular Swiss Travel Pass is pretty straightforward since it’s valid for a set number of consecutive days. You’ll simply have to show a printed or electronic version of the pass.

Using the Flex Pass is a bit more complex since you can choose the specific dates on which you will be using it. To avoid misunderstandings, you will have to activate the dates on which you want to use your pass online on this website . It’s important to activate the dates before your first journey, so e.g. you cannot do it when you are already on a train.

You will get all the information and clear instructions when you get the pass, so don’t worry about it too much in advance. Also, you can still adjust your chosen dates as long as you do it before midnight at the start of the day on which you want to use it.

How much does the Swiss Travel Pass cost in 2024?

The price of the Swiss Travel Pass depends on several factors: your age, the number of days, and whether you opt for a regular pass or flex. In addition, you can choose to travel in the 2nd Class or upgrade to 1st Class.

Additional discounts: Children under 6 are free of charge. Children from 6 to 16 travel free when accompanied by a paying parent (you need to order a ticket for them, but it’s free, and you will get the necessary instructions). Youth from 16 to 25 get almost 30% discount.

Here are the prices of the regular pass in Second Class in 2024 for adults:

3 DAYS: 244 CHF. 4 DAYS: 295 CHF. 6 DAYS: 379 CHF. 8 DAYS: 419 CHF. 15 DAYS: 459 CHF.

Good to know: Flex Pass costs 15% more and you’ll have to pay over 55% extra if you opt for First Class tickets.

As you can see, the longer the duration, the cheaper the price that you pay per day. If you just get it for 3 days, it costs you about 81 CHF per day, whereas if you get it for two weeks, it costs you just around 30 CHF per day – a huge difference!

Further below, you can find our observations on whether it’s worth getting the Swiss Travel Pass. But first, let’s take a look at what exactly is included.

What is included with the Swiss Travel Pass

This is what IS INCLUDED with the Swiss Travel Pass:

• Unlimited travel on trains, buses, and boats that belong to the public transport network. So all the inter-city trains as well as trams and buses in more than 90 towns and cities are included. Passenger ferries (not cruises) on Lake Lucerne or the lakes near Interlaken are included as well.
• Unlimited travel on premium panorama trains (however, there might be extra fees for advance seat reservations). These include the famous Bernina Express, Glacier Express, Golden Pass Line, and a few other panoramic train routes.
• Free entry to over 500 museums in Switzerland . You can find a complete list of all the museums here .
• Free travel on the following mountain excursions : Mt Rigi, Stanserhorn, and Stoos. All of these are located close to Lucerne and are among our top recommendations for the best day trips from Lucerne .
• Up to 50% discount on mountain excursions all over Switzerland. So you get a big discount on the majority of the cable cars, mountain trains, funiculars, etc. There are also discounts on certain lake cruises and similar.

Below, you can find a bit more info about what is not included with the Swiss Pass (but where you get a discount).

What is not included (but gives you a discount)

Because I get this question almost daily, here is once again an explanation of what IS NOT INCLUDED with the Swiss Travel Pass.

Mountain excursions are not included with the Swiss Travel Pass (with the exception of Mt Rigi, Stanserhorn, and Stoos as mentioned above), but you do get a discount on most of them. Under ‘mountain excursions’ they mean cable cars, gondolas, funiculars, cogwheel trains, trains to the mountain peaks, etc.

Here are a few examples of the most popular mountain excursions that our readers ask about and where the Swiss Pass does not include free travel, but gives you a discount:

• Grindelwald-First cable car – 50% discount.
• Mt Pilatus cable car and/or cogwheel train – 50% discount.
• Mt Titlis gondolas – 50% discount.
• Schynige Platte railway – 50% discount.
• Oeschinensee cable car – 50% discount.
• Gornergrat railway and Matterhorn Glacier Paradise gondolas – 50% discount.
• Jungfraujoch – about 25% discount. Or about 40% if you only go to Kleine Scheidegg.

There are many other destinations in the Swiss Alps where you get similar discounts with the Swiss Travel Pass.

Also, most lake sightseeing cruises are not included, whereas regular, scheduled passenger ferries are included with the Swiss Travel Pass. So if you are taking a ferry that stops in various places, your pass will be valid, but if you want to take a scenic cruise on e.g. Lake Geneva or Lake Lucerne, you’ll have to pay for it.

Is the Swiss Travel Pass worth it?

One of the most frequently asked questions by our readers is whether it’s worth getting the Swiss Travel Pass. My answer is always the same – it depends. Here are a few examples:

If you are traveling around Switzerland for a longer time (6-10 days or more) and plan on visiting many different areas all over the country using public transportation, then the Swiss Travel Pass is definitely worth it. The pass gives even better value if you are traveling with children.

If, however, you are only coming for a few days, renting a car, and/or planning on staying in one region in the mountains (where this pass only gives you a discount and not free travel), then it’s usually not worth it. In that case, look for a regional card of the area that you are visiting.

Most likely, your trip includes a mix of destinations that you only visit for a day as well as others where you stay for several days. In that case, you can look up the prices of all the mountain excursions that you are planning to do, see how big the discount is with the Swiss Travel Pass, add the price of the pass itself, and then compare that versus the prices of individual tickets of all the transportation and places you plan to visit. (Good luck with the math! It’s doable, but you’ll need a lot of time and patience).

In most cases, the Swiss Travel Pass is worth it, especially if you are traveling for at least 6-8 days and are visiting multiple destinations in Switzerland. Plus, it saves you lots of time, research, and math. Another advantage is that you can just take the next suitable train, boat, etc. without having to waste time looking for tickets.

Furthermore, you can always opt for a Swiss Pass Flex that you only use on travel-intensive days. And then get a regional card to use on the other days, when you are staying in one area. The longer you stay in one place (typically, 3-4 days or longer), the better value you get with the regional cards.

Where can you buy the Swiss Travel Pass?

You can buy the Swiss Travel Pass online, at every major railway station in Switzerland (including Zurich or Geneva airports), and also at some tourist offices in the main cities.

We recommend getting it online in advance as it will save you time and stress (you’ll have enough to think about upon arrival as it is).

You can get the Swiss Pass on the official SBB website , but also via various online retailers, such as our GetYourGuide as mentioned before (our personal favorite one-stop shop for all tickets). The price is normally exactly the same everywhere and you get the same discounts for kids, etc.

At the moment of writing, GetYourGuide allows you to cancel for free up to 3 days in advance (and it’s really easy to cancel or amend your tickets). You can buy a regular Swiss Travel Pass here and a Swiss Travel Pass Flex – here .

In any case, it’s best to buy your tickets at least a few days before your trip. When you purchase a pass, you will receive detailed instructions on how to use it (or how to activate the individual travel dates if you opt for the Flexi Pass).

So, this is our guide to the Swiss Travel Pass. I hope that it answers all your questions and helps you decide whether it’s worth it for your trip.

TIP: If you are planning your itinerary in Switzerland, check out our Switzerland travel page . It contains an overview of all our travel guides for a wide variety of destinations all over the country. We live in Belgium and Switzerland is just a half-day drive from home. So we visit Switzerland at least a few times a year – in summer as well as in winter. On our blog, you’ll find many detailed guides for all of our favorite places.

Hi, what's the difference between second class and first class and which do you recommend?

Monday 29th of April 2024

Hi Lan, there are a few benefits in the 1st class vs. 2nd. You have more space and more comfortable, adjustable seats on the train. First-class passengers can also sit on a higher deck on most boat trips. Some trains also have 'quiet zones' in the 1st class, but that's more interesting for business travelers who want to work during their journey. Hope this helps.

Saturday 30th of March 2024

Hi Jurga My wife and I will be traveling to Swizerland and planning to go thru several places from Zurich to Lucerne - Interlaken -Lauterbrunnen-Murren-Wengen-Gimmewald-Gridelwald and train to Milan.

Is the Swiss Pass a good option getting around for 10 days?

Thursday 4th of April 2024

@Jurga, Jurga, thank you very much for your response.

One more question: I read that the Bernese Oberalnd Pass better to use in my situation. What do you recommend between the two? Thank you.

Hi Robert, yes, if you are staying for 10 days and plan on using public transportation daily, a Swiss Pass definitely a good idea.

Sunday 24th of March 2024

Thanks. Good information. One question: If I buy a flex pass for, say, 6 days, but will be in Switzerland for 9 days and 8 nights, is the pass good for local busses, say in Bern or Zurich, on days I am not traveling between regions, without it counting as a full day of use?

Monday 25th of March 2024

@Jurga, thanks for the helpful answer. We'll buy two 8 day passes. Only 20 Francs more than the 6 day flex pass. Cheers!

Hi Bruce, I'm afraid that any use will count for that day (also museums, buses, etc.). With the flex pass, you will have to activate the dates on which you are using it online (you'll get the instructions when you get the pass) and if someone checks it on the day you didn't activate it for, you may get a fine. It might be simpler/cheaper to buy a local ticket if you need it for just one or two short rides on those days and keep your Swiss Pass for the days when you embark on the much more expensive journeys.

Sunday 3rd of March 2024

Thank you Jurga, for your Travel Pass explained, you saved my sanity! The official sites are good but not usually for a first-time visitor. Like how you explained one should board the N1 trolley and not the bus from Lucerne railway station to get to Kriens. Additionally, your guides to Lucerne and the various day trips from the picturesque city are very insightful. I am now confident with my decision to take the acclaim Swiss public transportation from Geneva to Lucerne in the spring for a girls' trip. Fingers crossed ;)

Glad to help, Jacqi. Have a great time in Switzerland!

Swiss Travel Pass 2024 review: Is it good value or not?

When it comes to city passes and travel cards, it’s usually fairly easy to figure out whether they would be worth it for you or not. For things like the  Paris Pass  or  London Pass , they have a list of the most popular attractions and how much they cost, right there for you to see. The Swiss Travel Pass, however, is shrouded in mystery, or at least it was until I spent several days tracking down all of the prices and benefits.

A great many of the visitors and commenters on my popular page about  where to go in Switzerland  on a short visit are wondering whether the Swiss Travel Pass is a good deal. Embarrassingly, I’ve always had to answer that I found the pass too confusing to confidently advise people on. Now that has all changed, after literally days of research.

Note: This article was last updated in February, 2024.

Disclosure : This is a reader-supported website and some of the links are affiliate links where a small commission is paid to help keep this site going, but the cost to visitors is the same. The Swiss Travel Pass seems quite expensive at first, so it felt like it might be hard to get your money’s worth out of it. As it turns out, it’s pretty easy to get good value, and it’ll be a good deal for many visitors.

New in 2024

Prices increased an average of 5.9% from 2023 on the Swiss Travel Passes, but the Half Fare Card remains at CHF120, which is where it’s been for many years. Train fares in the country increased by similar percentages so the value is basically unchanged. There were no other notable changes to service or the included attractions and train routes.

Where to stay in Interlaken and the Lauterbrunnen Valley

Since most people reading this will be visiting the Interlaken area and I get so many questions about it, I decided to write a detailed guide on which area to stay in while visiting this area.

>>> Where to stay in Interlaken or the Lauterbrunnen Valley in Switzerland

I included many huge photos in that post so readers will be able to get a better idea of what each place looks like and they are worth a look by itself.

>>> Lucerne or Interlaken: Which to visit and how long to stay?

The article just above will help you decide on how long to spend in each of Switzerland’s two best tourist areas.

Are you 100% sure where you want to go in Switzerland? This should help

Zurich and Geneva are pleasant but dull. The good news is that Switzerland is packed with amazing sights and none of them are the big cities. If you aren’t 100% locked in yet, please read the article below and I think you’ll enjoy it.

>>> Where to go in Switzerland in 2 to 10 days

Is the Swiss Travel Pass a good deal? Here's the short version

The bottom line is that the scenery, train journeys, and cable car rides in Switzerland are stunning and not found anywhere else in the world. They are also quite expensive if you pay for them one at a time. So no matter how you visit Switzerland, you are going to be paying quite a bit, or skipping the absolute best things that you’ve come there to see.

With good planning it’s quite easy to get great value out of a Swiss Travel Pass, but it might be a poor choice for those who don’t like to plan ahead. You can easily do a scenic train ride and a cable car in the same day, and still have time to do a scenic hike in the process.

First class or second class? Good news for most people

That said, Swiss Trains are literally the nicest in Europe and even the Second Class seats and carriages are nicer and roomier than trains in neighboring countries. The First Class seats are larger and nicer with only 3 across the cabin instead of 4, but honestly Second Class is perfectly comfortable for almost everyone.

Again, First Class on European trains like this is generally popular with business travelers where the company is paying and they need to get work done during the ride, and also senior citizens who don’t want to worry about a carriage full of backpackers. For most of the rest of us, Second Class is more than comfortable enough and the seat width and legroom compare to business-class airline seats. I’m a big and tall guy and I almost always travel in Second because it’s plenty comfortable enough and all the seats arrive at the same time anyway.

The longer you'll be in Switzerland, the better deal a Swiss Travel Pass will be

In other words, if you are staying 5 days or fewer, you have to do the math to determine your best option. But if you are spending even 6 or 7 days in Switzerland then the 6-day or 8-day Pass is almost guaranteed to be a great deal and your best choice. Once you have a Swiss Travel Pass you’ll absolutely love the ability to just hop on any train (excellent trains, always on time) and most boats and cable cars without having to worry about the cost. The per-day cost of an 8-day Pass even if you only use 6 of those days is about CHF65, and Switzerland is filled with amazing train rides and boats and cable cars that can get you that much value before noon each day.

Schilthorn (50% discount) and Jungfraujoch (25% discount) are cheaper with a Swiss Travel Pass

Both of those peak experiences are extraordinary and different from each other. Even so, compared to Jungfraujoch, Schilthorn is also faster and more comfortable on the way up and down. You can enjoy an excellent visit to Schilthorn in 4 hours or so (or a bit longer if you eat at the spinning Piz Gloria restaurant at the top), while a visit to Jungfraujoch requires closer to 6 hours.

NOTE: Schilthorn closes for maintenance for a week or two in late November most years.

Consider the Swiss Half-Fare Card instead

If you AREN’T going to be doing two or more of the long (and expensive) scenic train trips, you will get much better value out of the Swiss Half-Fare Card, which is explained a bit below.

Mt Rigi, near Lucerne, is 100% covered by the Swiss Travel Pass

Is a Swiss Travel Pass right for you?

Most people only visit Switzerland for 5 or 6 days at most, so the 3-day and 4-day passes are the ones to focus on. But if you are staying for 8 days or more, those longer passes are almost certainly a great deal for you.

Long story short, if you plan on doing 2 of the more expensive scenic trains and the Jungfraujoch railway or the Schilthorn cable car, then the pass will save you money. Switzerland is expensive, but it’s worth it, and the travel pass can help make it a bit more affordable.

What the Swiss Travel Pass includes

• Free rail travel on normal trains and most scenic trains
• Discounted travel (about 50%) on popular tourist mountain trains
• Discounted travel (about 50%) on popular tourist cable cars
• Free travel on public transport in 75 towns and cities
• Free entry to around 500 museums in Switzerland

The Swiss Travel Pass covers the fare on the most popular scenic and panoramic trains. You can choose a normal seat in a regular carriage for no additional cost, but there is a supplement of CHF8 to CHF49 for a reserved seat in one of the special panorama carriages on these routes.

• Adult 4 Flex days in 1 month (1st Class): 539
• Adult 4 Flex days in 1 month (2nd Class): 339
• Adult 6 Flex days in 1 month (1st Class): 644
• Adult 6 Flex days in 1 month (2nd Class): 405
• Adult 8 Flex days in 1 month (1st Class): 697

• Adult 15 Flex days in 1 month (1st Class): 755
• Adult 15 Flex days in 1 month (2nd Class): 472

Where to buy the Swiss Travel Pass

The swiss half-fare card – a better option for many visitors.

Far less confusing than the Swiss Travel Pass, you can instead get a Swiss Half-Fare Card, and it will be a better deal for many travelers. The price is lower and it’s much easier to do the math, and the discounts are greater on some things as well.

• Swiss Half-Fare Card for 30 days: Adults – CHF120 or US$129

What you get:

Those who buy the Swiss Half-Fare Card will get 50% discount on all trains, buses, and boats in Switzerland for up to 30 days, as well as 50% off all public transportation in 75 cities and towns.

>>> Buy the Swiss Half-Fare Card

Why the Half-Fare Card is a better deal for many

While the Swiss Travel Pass is a great deal for those doing many of the expensive scenic journeys and mountain sights within a few days, it’s not good value for those who are doing fewer of the expensive trips and/or those who are staying longer. Also, the Swiss Travel Pass only provides a 25% discount on the amazing Jungfraujoch Railway, which costs between CHF120 and CHF224 return depending on your starting point, while the Half-Fare Card provides a 50% discount.

The math is simple as well. You can just add up the cost of the trains, boats, and buses you’ll be taking while in Switzerland, and if the total is more than CHF240 or so, the Half-Fare Card will save you money.

Example itinerary:

• Zurich to Interlaken train (2nd Class): CHF50
• Schilthorn Cable Car: CHF112
• Jungfraujoch railway from Interlaken: CHF205
• Interlaken to Lucerne train (2nd Class): CHF33
• Mt Rigi roundtrip from Lucerne: CHF84
• Engelberg (near Lucerne) to Mt. Titlis Cable Car: CHF92
• Lucerne to Zurich train (2nd Class): CHF25

Total per person: CHF601 Total with Half-Fare Card (including price of card): CHF420.50

It would be tough to do all of those things in 4 days, although it is possible. If you bought a 4-day Swiss Travel Pass here is how it adds up:

4-Day Swiss Travel Pass: CHF259 Supplements for Schilthorn, Jungfraujoch, and Mt. Titlis: CHF203.25 Total cost: CHF462.25

Bottom line on the Swiss Half-Fare Card

Since the Half-Fare Card lasts 30 days and provides a larger discount on Jungfraujoch, it is better value for visitors who want to include that scenic top-of-Europe rail journey on their trip. The discounts also add up more quickly on Schilthorn and Mt. Titlis trips, just to name two examples, and you don’t have to take many longer rail journeys to get value out of the Half-Fare Card.

Swiss Saver Day Pass (A one-day unlimited travel pass)

If you buy the Saver Day Pass at least 21 days in advance (and up to 60 days in advance) the 2023 cost is:

• 2nd Class (with Half Fare Card): CHF29
• 1st Class (with Half Fare Card): CHF82
• 2nd Class (with no Half Fare Card): CHF52
• 1st Class (with no Half Fare Card): CHF97

Once you research the normal cost of Swiss train fares you’ll see that the above prices are a very good deal for anyone riding more than 150 kilometers or so in a day. If you are just going, for example, from Zurich to Lucerne or Interlaken on a day, it’ll be cheaper to just buy that ticket individually. But if you are going from Geneva or Montreux to Interlaken or Lucerne then the Saver Day Pass will be much cheaper. Better still, you can use a Saver Day Pass to go from Interlaken to Geneva and back on the same day on the Goldenpass line and returning on the faster train through Bern, and it will still all be included for free.

If you don’t buy a Saver Day Pass at least 14 days in advance it’s more expensive, and if you only buy 1 to 3 days in advance it’s VERY expensive, so the key is to buy early. This is all confusing, but the Saver Day Pass should be a great option for many people only in Switzerland for one to three days.

The Swiss Travel Pass also includes free museum admission, but…

The problem is that the museums are only free on valid travel days, and almost no one would visit more than one or two museums with a Swiss Travel Pass. The trains and cable cars are so expensive that the pass gives very good value to cover those, so you don’t want to waste precious sightseeing time walking through a museum that only costs CHF10 anyway.

In other words, calculate the value of a Swiss Travel Pass on the travel savings only, and if you visit a museum here or there, then great. Most people are better off trying to squeeze in an additional train ride each day, and ignoring the museums. Switzerland is all about the outdoor scenery. As nice as the museums may be, they are not why you are there.

The pass includes free public transport in most Swiss cities

Similar to the free museum part of the offer, it’s best to ignore or minimize the value of free public transportation. It could be helpful in Zurich, but in most other Swiss tourist towns you won’t need much public transport. In fact, in Interlaken, each hotel or hostel guest automatically gets a card for free public transportation within the town (including between the two train stations).

So you might use a ride or two each day on public transport, but that won’t add up to much in terms of value of your Swiss Travel Pass.

Swiss Travel Pass 2024 review: Is it good value or not? " --> All Comments

Thank you for such minute details and tips. But somehow we havent found a comprehensive comparison of swiss pass vs renting a car on the web.So could you suggest what would be better if we are a group of four traveling for a total of 5 days 4 nights with starting point being zurich, same day go to lucerne (2 night here – cover the city and Mt. titls ) then go to interlaken region( grindelwald + jungfrouh) for again 2 nights and back to zurich on the fiifth day. – is swiss pass better or a car in this case for 4 ppl?

Generally I discourage renting cars to get around Europe, but Switzerland can be an exception because parking in towns like Interlaken and Lucerne isn’t as challenging as it is in larger cities, and most of the main sights including cable cars have at least a small parking lot. So it really depends on what you’d be paying for the car and then what you’d be paying for parking. I haven’t checked lately, but I do think you’d have to pay to park at most attractions.

One thing I can say is that the Swiss train system is amazing and it connects everything that you’d want to see very quickly and efficiently, with views that are usually better than even those out of car windows. So the driver would not enjoy things as much having to concentrate on the road all the time, but the other three in the car should have nice views almost all the time.

Long story short, if someone else was paying and organizing this trip and they asked me if I’d rather be a passenger in a rented car or take the trains I’d take the trains in a heartbeat. However, if it turns out you can rent a car and park in the places you want to visit cheaply enough, it’s worth considering. I’m not sure if that helps. -Roger

Excellent details line by line. I am visiting france for busines trip and would like to go Visit Swiss for just 2 days. I know it is not enough to explore such a beautiful country. I will taking train from Basel SBB to Lucerne and based there for both the days. Upon reaching lucerne, i would like to visit Mt. Titlis with Flyer and few more attractions on day 1 and roam around on day 2 (may be Mt. Rigis) and then leave by train to Lucerne to Zurich. (Not sure whether this trip covered by Swiss Pass). I have checked that the 3 days pass is costs CHF 244. not sure to compare the other fares with this swiss pass (as per me it comes lower than CHF244). Could you please guide me what is the best option? To buy swiss pass or half discount card or just pay as i go?

I’m glad you found this helpful. That is a tricky one. A Swiss Travel Pass is valid on all normal trains within the country (including Lucerne to Zurich). I suppose the only way to know would be to add up all of the fares of the things you are planning on doing. It might be cheaper to buy them one at a time as sometimes they do have discount or supersaver fares. My guess is that all of those individual tickets might be close to the CHF244, but they could be more or less. Sorry I’m not any more help on this. -Roger

Explore our new travel destinations

The 2024 summer timetable offers a wide variety of new destinations. With Washington D.C. and Toronto, we are adding two new exciting North American metropolises to our intercontinental route network. In Asia, the popular South Korean capital Seoul is an exciting highlight. Not only that, but also new destinations in Eastern Europe are waiting to be discovered by you: Cluj-Napoca and Košice promise great hospitality and historic architecture. In addition, we are increasing frequencies to a number of long- and short-haul destinations from Zurich and Geneva.

Intercontinental

Seoul: the city of contrasts.

South Korea is enjoying growing popularity, not least due to popular TV series, K-pop music and, of course, its exceptionally diverse cuisine. In Seoul alone, travellers will find plenty of sights such as the five royal palaces, including the famous UNESCO World Heritage Site Changdeokgung. Meanwhile, the Dongdaemun Design Plaza design centre, whose shape is reminiscent of a spaceship, is almost futuristic. From 7 May 2024 we connect South Korea and Switzerland three times a week during the summer timetable.

Flights per week

Flight duration, 11 hrs 45 min., airport code, aircraft type, airbus 340-300, washington d.c.: capital city and cultural hub.

On one hand a centre of power, an idyll with a high quality of life on the other: Washington D.C. has both to offer. The city’s silhouette also has symbolic significance because no building is permitted to be taller than the Capitol. This measure alone has prevented D.C. from becoming a city of skyscrapers. Instead visitors can admire a serene cityscape that offers plenty of green space for people and an exceptional backdrop to its historic architecture. SWISS flies you to the US capital daily from 28 March 2024 (not 29 March 2024).

9 hrs 25 min.

Airbus 330-300, toronto: explore canada’s answer to new york.

Toronto is worth a visit at any time of the year with its breathtaking skyline, picturesque chains of islands and many idyllic mansions. Canada’s biggest city mainly stretches skywards: Toronto is known as the New York of Canada for good reason. Although this city in eastern Canada is a true metropolis with almost three million inhabitants, here you’ll find plenty of opportunities for activities in magnificent natural scenery. SWISS flies you to this city on Lake Ontario five times a week from 10 May 2024.

8 hrs 45 min.

The intercontinental route network of our 2024 summer schedules.

The Summer timetable 2024 is filled with numerous new and existing destinations that ignite the desire to travel. These include the popular South Korean city of Seoul as well as Washington D.C. and Toronto. In addition, we are increasing our service to several major metropolises in North America and Asia. The two largest cities in California, Los Angeles and San Francisco, will be served daily again. Montreal also welcomes a new daily connection. In the Asian region, Hong Kong and Singapore benefit from increased frequencies with daily flights.

Tip from our crew: Discover Seoul with Jenny

Jenny lived in Seoul for almost ten years before joining SWISS. She reveals her favourite places in the "city full of possibilities", as she affectionately calls Seoul, to SWISS Magazine.

London Gatwick: our new entry point to the UK capital

Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, Tower Bridge, Hyde Park, pub culture, fashion, theatre, music: it would take forever to list all London’s attractions. One thing is clear: this vibrant capital of the United Kingdom is well worth a visit at any time of the year. London Gatwick airport is situated approximately 25 miles (40 km) south of the city and is the ideal starting point for exploring the south of England. We fly to London Gatwick six times a week from 2 April 2024.

1 hr 50 min.

Cluj-napoca: tradition and modernity in transylvania.

This vibrant city in the heart of Transylvania is famous for its historic architecture, exciting culture and lively university scene. The city offers an impressive mix of tradition and modernity, from medieval buildings to modern shops and cafés. Cluj-Napoca is also an important cultural and economic centre that hosts regular cultural events, festivals and concerts. We fly you to Romania’s second largest city three times a week from 28 March 2024.

1 hr 55 min.

Airbus a220-100, košice: historic treasures and delightful hospitality.

The hospitality of the local people and the wonderfully preserved old town are just two of many reasons why it’s worth paying a visit to the picturesque city of Košice in eastern Slovakia. The Gothic St Elizabeth’s cathedral and Jacab’s Palace are impressive examples of architecture that this city has to offer. Košice is also known for its exciting cultural scene. Its charming narrow streets and squares invite you to stroll and explore. We fly you to this Slovakian city three times a week from 27 March 2024.

The European route network for our 2024 summer schedules

Our 2024 summer schedules will take you with even greater frequency to attractive European cities from Zurich and Geneva. Alongside Cluj-Napoca and Košice we now fly from Zurich to a third London airport in the British capital at London Gatwick, as well as the Hanseatic city of Bremen in north Germany. We’ve also added the Norwegian capital Oslo to our Scandinavian destinations Copenhagen and Stockholm that are served from Geneva.

This Tiny Home With Its Clever Downsizing Features Can Be Likened To A Swiss Army Knife

Perched on a steep hillside plot in California is a tiny home designed by Mork-Ulnes Architects. The compact abode was built on the pre-existing foundations of a 1950s garage. The layout of the home is quite unique, and resembles a Swiss Army knife, as it maximizes features in an otherwise small and compact area. The home displays how smart downsizing ideas can be utilized to create a comfortable home for a small family.

Designer: Mork-Ulnes Architects 

Called the Crest guesthouse and located in Marin County, California, the home was commissioned by a family of three, who needed this to be their temporary home, as their main residence on the property is undergoing renovation. When the main house is ready, the Crest will function as a guesthouse. The home measures 400 square feet, and since it is located in the forest, wildfires are definitely a major concern. To deal with this issue, the exterior has been finished in a fire-resistant cement board, which is also quite easy to maintain. The architects also added a small deck to create more usable outdoor space.

You can enter the home via a large sliding door which opens the front-facing facade to the outside if the weather is pleasant. The interior of the home is quite airy and open, despite its small size. The interior is finished in plywood. The layout of the home is like a typical tiny home, except for a few differences. For example, the main bedroom isn’t a bedroom but is basically a Murphy bed installed into a wall. This creates plenty of free floor space, making the living area quite large. A sofa is placed on one side, and this includes integrated storage space, as well as some shelving above, and a wardrobe unit placed adjacent.

The kitchen is located close to the living area, and this includes a sink, oven, and an electric cooktop, as well as loads of cabinetry and shelving. The kitchen also has a dining table with a TV on the wall nearby. The dining table also has some integrated additional storage and features wheels so you can move it to the deck area for eating outside. The second bedroom is located in the loft and can be accessed via a ladder. The second bedroom contains a bed and a chair, and there is quite a bit of headspace to stand upright.

The reef’s vast biodiversity and the clarity of its waters make it one of the most sought-after diving destinations globally.

U.s. travel’s ipw 2024 comes to a close.

May 08, 2024 By U.S. Travel Association

Yesterday, U.S. Travel Association’s IPW came to a close. At the leading inbound travel trade show, delegates had the opportunity to connect in-person—conducting business, renewing relationships, and securing new partnerships around the world. The past few days were spent securing America’s position as a foremost global travel destination and showcasing the best of what the U.S. has to offer.

As the event concluded, here are some additional highlights from U.S. Travel’s IPW.

Ziggy Marley Luncheon Performance

We welcomed reggae icon Ziggy Marley to the stage at yesterday’s luncheon presented by Experience Kissimmee. His energetic and uplifting performance of classic songs featuring harmonious themes of love, peace, and unity had attendees swaying in their seats.

Travel Writer Awards

At U.S. Travel’s IPW, five travel journalists were honored with U.S. Travel Association and Brand USA IPW Travel Writer Awards.

Closing Night Event

Universal Destinations & Experiences threw one of the biggest parties ever for IPW 2024 in Los Angeles. Universal Studios Hollywood rolled out the red carpet and pulled out all the stops. All night long, we enjoyed exclusive access to Hollywood’s legendary entertainment theme park and the excitement of The World-Famous Studio Tour.

Take a look at the day’s video footage roundup as well as the show’s Daily Happenings photos .

Coordinates of elektrostal in degrees and decimal minutes, utm coordinates of elektrostal, geographic coordinate systems.

WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.

Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .
