It was a little difficult to figure out how to make seat reservations for bernina express. But I got it sorted out. Apart from that, the Interrail Swiss pass was very easy to use. I did not have to stress about buying tickets at all. It is also a mobile pass, so that was also convenient.
This pass was such a great way to explore Switzerland. I used it to visit the Alps, Zurich, Interlaken and Geneva over six days. Sometimes the app was a bit confusing, but the unlimited travel time and money saved more than made up for it.
Buying online was easy but the app was difficult to select your specific trains. I even asked employees and they didn't know but did make every effort to try to help me figure it out. Same case with Glacier Express and Bernini Express when I was loading the tickets, it was a multiple step process and finally got it done but it wasn't simple.
