Templar Saint Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 You can buy one ticket from Basel, EuroAirport to Luzern. It will cover you for the bus and the train. Or when you get here just buy a bus ticket from the airport to the train station. I wasn't aware of there being cheaper tickets on the SBB, we have a fixed price from A > B regardless of when you book it or when you travel. That's a good tip to know about the internet offers. The things you learn, eh! Aye it takes a canny scot to educate the locals. JustCantBeatThat.com 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 Ok - go to www.sbb.ch/en/home.html Fill in the the boxes on the left hand side Go through the next process of filling in your name etc - there is a drop down menu - pick no discount You will then come to a screen which shows various train times (around your specified time) and the price A little bit further down on this screen there is a box marked Supersaver - click on this A number of trains will appear around the time you specified earlier and they will have the discounted price listed next to them Pick the one you want and repeat for your return journey (do not pick return on the earlier screen as it is a return for the same day only) Print your tickets and away you go It appears the only drawback is that if you use these tickets you can only go on that specified train and there are no refunds Many thanks. I'll have a go at that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Born2Bru Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 I have just booked my rail tickets from Basel - Luzern (and back) on-line and stumbled on the fact that certain trains qualify for Supersaver tickets and I have managed to save over 50% on the regular fare As did I.

Kyle Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 How much money is everyone taking?? No idea how much I'll need for wed/thu nights. Me and my girlfriend have taken about £400 for 3 nights and 4 days. If we require more, I'll probably end up putting it on my credit card.

JEccles621 Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 I'm staying in Zurich on the Weds and Thurs nights (long story!) but getting train to Luzern early on the Thursday then the last one back after the game (something like quarter to midnight from memory) which means I'll still be able to have a post-match celebratory pint or two. Got a supersaver deal - £12.50 return - quite pleased with that Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted July 12, 2014 Report Share Posted July 12, 2014 I think the draw is on Friday after the first leg against Luzern, hence why we would get their seeding in the next round if we beat them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
