I want to vent a little bit about the pricing of the SBB tickets. Where I live I move mostly by walking so I don’t really need to have the half price or the GA (which I could not afford even if I wanted to do it). The thing is I am Swiss, I grew up in Switzerland and I have experienced the rise of the prices of the public transport here. To some extend I would say it is fair. But I think, on the other hand, some prices are absolutely crazy. I am planning to spend a day in Zurich, starting from Ticino, I would have to spend 136 CHF to go there and come back. It was a last minute decision so the communal day card are sold out for that date. For a two hours train ride is an absolutely crazy price, especially because the government is always talking about new taxes and ways to protect the environment. I do care about that but when these are the train prices it becomes an obvious choice for me to take the car as I would spend max 50 fr on fuel. submitted by /u/SensitiveSnail9
