(This news item only applies to employees eligible for the FIP International Reduced Rate Card.)
Within the pages for Switzerland in the Travel Tips for Europe guide, Schweizerische Südostbahn (SOB) is listed as a carrier within the SP (Swiss Private) group. The listing includes the boundaries of SOB operations within which SP coupons are valid.
SOB branded trains also operate services outside of the boundaries listed in the Travel Tips for Europe guide. These services operate under an SBB licence. SP coupons are not valid on these routes, an SBB coupon (or FIP discounted ticket) is required.
The Travel Tips for Europe guide will be updated to reflect this situation.
