Passengers of Swiss International Air Lines traveling to railway stations in Lausanne, Fribourg, or Bern now have the option of transferring at Zurich or Geneva Airport, this is reported by the railway transport news portal, Railway Supply.

Geneva Airport is now connected to the Swiss railway network

This expansion is a result of the Air Rail route network expansion in cooperation with SBB.

As in all Swiss Air Rail routes, customers can use the option to book their entire journey to Geneva Airport.

Passengers need to check in only once and receive all boarding passes directly from Swiss.

Currently, the Swiss Air Rail network consists of two airport stations and 11 destinations, including Interlaken, Lausanne, Lugano, Bellinzona, and Basel in Switzerland, Munich in Germany, and Bregenz in Austria.

Since establishing their strategic partnership in October 2019, Swiss and SBB have continuously worked on expanding their joint portfolio of services and products.

Both companies are also taking another important step in the technical integration of their systems, providing Swiss tickets with SBB QR codes to improve boarding pass control and customer service.

Swiss is also improving access to the Swiss Travel Pass from SBB through its online channels, especially through the app.

This allows foreign travelers to explore all of Switzerland by train, bus, and boat for three, four, six, eight, or 15 days with a single ticket.

Regular tickets for public transportation in Switzerland should also be available through Swiss sales channels no later than the new year.

In addition, there are several other SBB services available to Swiss passengers, including baggage check and lounge access.
