Seat reservation

Cumourrumb51

I have purchased tickets for two Mountain Excursions, Jungfraujoch and the Gornergrat. How do I reserve seats for myself and my traveling companions? Thanks.

Gornergrat Railway do offer some priority boarding for the ascent though.

You cannot reserve seats for the Gornergrat. Buying this ticket in advance gives you no advantage whatsoever. For the Jungfraujoch just reserve at a station here.

In general do not buy mountain excurions till the day before, when you know what the weather will be.

They do now? Good. But that is what those “reservations” at the Jungfrau, Pilatus, Brienzer Rothorn etc.. are. They are not seat reservations but priority boarding passes. They should label them as such consistently.

This was already in place in 2019.
