A RailAway leisure travel offer consists of a public transport ticket and a leisure activity, such as admission or a day pass for skiing. In many cases, you benefit from reductions on the additional product when you travel there with public transport. Reduced leisure travel offers are also known as RailAway combined offers.

You can get RailAway offers for individual travellers (individuals, couples, families, small groups up to 9 people) as well as for schools (from 10 or more people).

RailAway offers for individual travellers can be purchased online.

RailAway offers for schools are not available online.

No. RailAway offers are not available via the SBB Mobile app.

• You can buy leisure travel offers online, by phone from the SBB Contact Center 0848 44 66 88 (CHF 0.08/min) or at any staffed public transport point of sale.

If you already hold a ticket for public transport, you can also purchase the discounted leisure travel offer on its own. To find out which sales channels sell the leisure travel offer you have chosen, check each specific offer.
