(wap) Supersaver tickets and Saver Day cards have led to a decline in community day ticket sales in recent years, the public transportation industry organization Alliance SwissPass writes in a message Wednesday. At the same time, selling expenses have increased and sales are no longer covering costs in many places. A digitization of the day pass was verified, but was rejected: This “would only be feasible with disproportionately high financial and human effort due to different IT interfaces and solutions,” continues Alliance SwissPass.
Therefore, the offer will only be maintained until the end of 2023. The strategic partnership with the Swiss Association of Municipalities and the Swiss Association of Cities will continue. By 2024, cities and municipalities will have a “new attractive offering,” writes Alliance SwissPass. Similar to partnerships with Coop or the post office, municipalities and cities should also be able to sell public transport tickets at special rates. In this sense, there are already several variants in the room.
