 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hmm! Christmas time - spending loads of money skiing in Lech with the family - flying to Zurich on 27th and catching the train to nearest stop (just short of St Anton) - pre-booked 2nd class - 200 pounds return, 2hr 20 min journey - 5 of us - 4 adults and the 16 year old daughter goes free! Good value eh? So why shouldn't I pre-book first class? 300 pounds all in. Is it worth it? What extra do I get? Have I made a mistake? Birmingham to Euston - 180 pounds return! Swiss rail travel looks exceptional value! Is it? Should I re-book? It is Christmas after all?

Colin Bell, 1st class have bigger seats and more leg room, but both tend to be much more comfortable and cleaner than UK trains, you also find silent coaches, not much good for group travel though

Colin, yes, Langen is where you stop and then connect by bus/taxi - about 20 mins to Lech from Langen.
