An additional charge of 7.20 CHF for tickets that I first have to exchange at the ticket counter, which I only find out about when entering the show. A clever trick making me think I'm on the Verkehrshaus site.

Your text says people can watch shows and events. This is about a show that can be chosen. You should change that on your voucher. Thanks Regards
