With the 1-month GA Travelcard, you can travel freely by train, bus, and boat within the GA Travelcard service area for one month. It’s ideal for anyone who travels frequently by public transportation for a limited period of time but doesn’t need an annual GA Travelcard. The 1-month GA Travelcard is loaded onto the SwissPass.

If you don’t have one of these already, an online identity check will be carried or at a staffed public transport ticket office. In this case, please bring your SwissPass with you. If you don’t have a SwissPass, please bring a recent analogue or digital passport photo and your passport or ID card.
Staffed ticket offices

With the 1-month GA Travelcard you travel without restriction on the routes of BLS and most other Swiss railways, on ships, in post buses and on urban local transport. However, there are some exceptions and restrictions, so we recommend to find out the exact range of validity before beginning your journey.
SwissPass, one card for everything
With the purchase of a travel card, you automatically receive the SwissPass. All you need is a valid ID card or passport and a recent passport photo. As a new customer, you can also now purchase your travelcard in the BLS-Webshop and confirm your identity online in just a few minutes without having to find a ticket office.
If you already have a SwissPass, you can use your GA Travelcard from the first day of validity. Otherwise, the GA Travelcard on the SwissPass will be sent by post within approx. 10 days.
No. Since a 1-month GA Travelcard is valid for only one month and does not renew automatically, you cannot register it or cancel it.
On purely tourist mountain railways such as the Jungfraujoch, the GA Travelcard is not usually valid and you pay a reduced or even the full fare. The GA Travelcard is usually valid for mountain railways that serve residential areas.
With the GA Travelcard, you can travel by boat free of charge on most of Switzerland's large lakes.
Exceptions: Lake Greifen, Lake Lugano, Lac de Joux, Lac des Brenets, Lake Poschiavo, Lake Sils and Lake Walen.
