The following are our rules on carrying and charging for children.

A Child must be between the age of 2 and 11 (inclusive) at the time of travel to receive the 10% child discount. Anyone 12 or older at the time of travel is defined as an "Adult" and must pay the full Adult fare. If your child requires a booster seat, we will need you to provide this yourself.

An Infant is defined as any child that would normally require a baby seat. You have 2 options if you are travelling with an Infant:

Your infant may legally sit on your lap for this journey and in this case, you do not need to pay for your infant. However, you may not sit on the front seats of the bus - that is the seats that are exposed to the windscreen. We will need you to email us the infants name once you have booked so we have an accurate list of all passengers.
If you wish your infant to be strapped into a baby seat, you must provide this yourself. In this case, you must book a seat on our service for this infant. You can select a Child in our booking system and therefore receive the 10% child discount.

For more detailed information on carrying children on all our services, please visit our Children's Page.

If you have any questions about the above, please do not hesitate to Contact Us.

Thank you for your understanding.

It is regrettable that children under the age of 4 years are not allowed to travel on our services. Unfortunately, some of the coaches that we operate use two-point lap belts which are not compatible with the majority of baby seats. Under Swiss law it is forbidden to transport babies on the parents lap. Any children 4 years old and above can travel on our service but will have to occupy an individual seat and pay the full fare.
