where does the bus stop in moutiers?

Moutiers Gare Routiere Bus Station We will drop you off at and pick you up from Bay Number 4 of the main bus station in Moutiers, the “Gare Routiere”. This is the bus and train station, which can be located in the centre of town. From here, you can get onward transport with the local bus network, Altibus. We do ask our customers to keep an eye out for our vehicles as the bus station can get very busy and it is not always possible to park at Bay Number 4.

what if our flight is delayed?

Delayed Flight Our buses are timed to give our customers at least 40 minutes (often more) to pass through Passport Control, Customs and Baggage Reclaim.

Unfortunately, unlike our other routes, we cannot hold our transfers back to wait for people who might be delayed. This is because the driver hours are strictly controlled by the EU and they need to get back to their depot before their hours run out. Our transfer departure times are also closely monitored by the local authorities to ensure a timely service and penalties are levied for late running services.

If you are running late, you can call our manager at the airport (their number will be on your e-Ticket) and they will do their best to hold the bus back a few minutes. Otherwise, we will get you on our next service at no extra cost, provided there is space. We have many buses going back and forth each day and our staff are trained to do the very best by our customers to ensure your holiday starts off on the right note.

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.

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.
