Dear sir or madam,

I’m going to visit Switzerland with my two daughters aged 7 and 9 years old. Now I’m confused by those children’s card, such as Junior Travel Card, Children’s co-Travelcard, Day Pass Children and GA Travel Card for Children. I’m a tourist and I’m going to purchase the 120CHF Half Fare Travel Card for 1 month. My question is: May I add both of my two daughters to my Half Fare Travel Card? That means I need to order 1 Half Fare Travel Card for myself and 2 Family Cards for my daughters. In this case, can they travel for free then?

Thank you for your kind reply in advance!

Hello yanceyyu

If you buy the Half-Fare Card from Swiss Travel System anyway, it is the best offer. Your children then travel free with the Family Card when accompanied by you. You can find this and more info here: https://www.sbb.ch/en/leisure-holidays/inspiration/international-guests/swiss-halffare-card.html

I wish you a pleasant stay within Switzerland.

Kind regards,
FatimaH

Dear sir or madam,

Thank you for your prompt reply! One more question is whether my daughters with the Family Card will travel for free on the boat between Interlaken OST and Brienz? Thanks!

FatimaH Hi! Sorry! One more question is If I buy a half fare travel card at 120CHF and saver day pass at 59CHF, does it cover the boat expense between Interlaken OST and Brienz? Thank you sooooo much!

Hello yanceyyu

The Swiss Family Card entitles your children to travel for free when accompanied by you while you hold a valid ticket. The Swiss Family Card has the same range of validity as the Swiss Half Fare Card.

Kind regards,

Yes, it does.
Please see the map to understand where the Swiss Half Fare Card offers discounts. You can find it on this website Swiss Half Fare Card – Switzerland at half the price | SBB in the Downloads box.

Kind regards,
