purchasing tickets

I have bought a save day pass , how do I now buy the train ticket using the pass I have bought

What’s your intention of purchasing tickets when you actually hold the Saver Day Pass?

Kind regards,

My understanding has been that you buy the Saver Day Pass and then any tickets to be able to get discounted tickets? So do I not need anything else to be able to board any train during the course of that day. We are going on the Glacier Express and I have a seat reservation and now the Saver Day Pass. Is that all we need. No actual train ticket ?? This is our first trip to Switzerland and we are finding it all a bit confusing.

Hello Meesupoon94

Your understanding is not enterily correct.

The Saver Day Pass is a day ticket for public transportation that allows you to use the public transport in Switzerland at will (hop on, hop of as many times and where you want) during its validity. There is no additional ticket needed, except for mountain excursions (cable cars, gondolas, lifts, etc.).

The Saver Day Pass is good for travel on the Glacier Express, there is nothing else you need.

The Saver Day Pass is a discounted pass (discounted = no refund, no amendments), yet still available at full and reduced fare. If you want to benefit from a reduced Saver Day Pass, as with any reduced ticket, you would need the Swiss Half Fare Card in addition.
