Paris to Zurich

[williamn]

Hi all,

I'm aware that due to engineering the service between Paris and Zurich is reduced until the end of the year. I'm looking at travelling this route in January 2025 and RailEurope still seems to be showing a reduced service, with the useful train around Midday not running. Does anyone know if the reduced service is indeed continuing into January, or is it possible more services will be loaded on later?

European 2035 timetable is not complete yet. Wait another month and compare both SNCF and SBB web sites

European 2035 timetable is not complete yet.

Imagine if the railways could plan that far in advance

The Swiss do and I am certain that their 2035 timetable ist mostly ready by now.

Thanks all, most useful. I'll be more patient. Is there any rule of thumb as to when tickets go on sale for the new timetable? I'm doing London-Paris-Zurich-Milan (via Bernina Express) - Florence, and returning the same way but on the more direct non-Bernina train between Milan and Zurich.

That depends on the operator, and for SNCF, it also depends on the train type. You can check the opening dates here:

The Swiss have already put the 2025 timetable into the computers.

January 2025 Paris - Zurich - Chur - Tirano is already available for purchase on SBB.ch

Tirano - Milano would be a Trenord fare that you can purchase at Tirano station

Check on Trenitalia for Milano - Firenze

You can book those legs in one go via Trenitalia.
