Notes
| City zones | Zurich (zone 110) and Winterthur (zone 120) each count as two zones as the public transport networks in these cities are much more dense than elsewhere. |
|---|---|
| Short distances | Short-distance trips in the cities of Zurich and Winterthur may involve travel over city boundaries. Areas of validity are shown on the ticket machines. A short distance list and map of each stop can also be found here (in German). The easiest and fastest way to buy short distance tickets is to use the ZVV app or the ticket machine.
|
| Local network | A local network covers a municipality (not including the cities of Zurich and Winterthur). The easiest and fastest way to buy local zone tickets is to use the ZVV app or the ticket machine.
|
| Juniors with full fare multiple-journey tickets | Where one field on a multiple-journey ticket is validated at full price, two persons can travel provided they are both eligible for a reduced fare (i.e. children, Half-Fare Travelcard holders) and at least three zones are paid for. |
