Train fares and tariffs / Cheap Tickets from Paris to Zurich

« on: May 24, 2011, 02:40:51 am »

Any suggestions in getting cheap tickets from Paris to Zurich.  If I go to tgv's website it redirects me to raileurope.  I know raileurope charges a mark up on tickets that I could probably get cheaper elsewhere.  Thanks,

Train fares and tariffs / Zurich to Vienna - Cheap 1st Class Ticket - DID I DO SOMETHING WRONG

« on: May 23, 2011, 04:17:26 am »

I need to do a sanity check and make sure I'm not doing anything wrong.

Yesterday I purchased point to point 1st class tickets from Zurich to Vienna for 2 adults and 2 children under 16 on the RJ 169 Train.  The fair I paid was 194 swiss francs through sbb.ch. This seems very inexpensive to me and I hope all I need to show is the tickets that I have printed and my USA passports.  I have no other special discount passes or cards.  I noticed on the receipt that the two adults were paid and that the two children were free.  The receipt showed 2 adult supersaver tickets and my 2 children were called "children with TEE family discount"  Then I noticed that under the conditions of the children is says "must be accompanied by a parent or a grandparent also travelling on a "TEE ticket"".  What is a TEE ticket?  From what I can tell TEE seems to be a program between Germany / Austria and Switzerland and not necessarily some sort of special ticket.
