For this reason, we recommend using a more modern browser (e.g. Mozilla FirefoxLink opens in new window., Google ChromeLink opens in new window., Microsoft EdgeLink opens in new window.).

We are aware that switching to a new browser may take some getting used to and cause some uncertainties. A more modern browser will allow you to benefit from faster and more secure internet access in future. We are committed to continuing our work with the utmost enthusiasm in the future to guarantee you accessible and inclusive access to SBB.ch.
