• You must present your valid Half Fare Travelcard on the day of your journey.
• You must activate your leisure days yourself on swisspass.ch before you travel. To do so, you will need a personal SwissPass account – if you do not already have one, swisspass.chLink opens in new window.. If you would like to activate leisure days before the first day of validity for your Leisure Travelcard or if you need any help, please contact a staffed public transport point of sale or call the SBB Contact Center on 0848 44 66 88 (CHF 0.08/min.)
• Activated leisure days may be deactivated at your account on swisspass.ch up to the start of the period of validity at 23.59.
• Upon presentation of a doctor’s note, which confirms the inability to travel, at most staffed public transport points of sale you may have the leisure day deactivated even on the travel day or thereafter.
• A leisure day that has been redeemed is valid until 5 o’clock of the following day.
• You can buy route-specific class upgrades, Supersaver Class Upgrades at a discounted price or 1-day class upgrades for your 2nd class Leisure Travelcard with a valid Half Fare Travelcard.
• An increase of leisure days from 20 to 30 days or a change from 2nd class to 1st class is not possible with the same Leisure Travelcard. In this case, we reimburse the pro-rated amount of the existing travelcard without a deductible, and issue a new Leisure Travelcard.
• Discounts on day trips with RailAway. With tickets for public transport, you can enjoy at least 10% discount or added value for numerous leisure experiences (Day trips).

Unused leisure days cannot be transferred to the subsequent year, however they may be reimbursed. We set off 75 Swiss francs (2nd class) or 127 Swiss francs (1st class) for every used leisure day, which corresponds to a Day Pass for the Half Fare Travelcard. You receive the remaining amount minus the customary deductible of 10 Swiss francs.

In the following exceptional cases, you are fully reimbursed for unused leisure days, and are not charged the deductible: 

• If you purchase an annual travelcard (Point-to-Point, Modular or Regional Travelcard; this does not apply to the purchase of a Half Fare Travelcard).
• If you purchase a GA Travelcard.
• If you purchase a Leisure Travelcard in one of the following cases:

In the event of death, we will also reimburse you the unused leisure days in full minus an excess of CHF 10.
