- guests residing outside switzerland: depending on the situation (length of stay, planned excursions) it may be worthwhile to purchase the one-month swiss half fare card for CHF 120.00 instead of the beo-pass. this means that you always travel at half fare, even outside the area of validity of the beo-pass. let jui's swiss trips & homestay know your plans, and we will suggest the best option for you.
