The most up to date timetable for the GoldenPass Express can be found below.
Located at the end of the train (front or back depending on the direction of travel), prestige class seats are the most expensive and exclusive. The Prestige area is separated by a glass door from 1st class and features just 9 seats.
Seats are cream leather and on the arm rest you'll find an electronic panel to adjust the leg rest, back position and seat depth, not only that but you'll also find a heating panel to add extra warmth to the seat providing ultimate comfort.
A table is tucked away with the arm rests which can be taken out and put away as you please. Seats can also be rotated to face the direction of travel. The Prestige area of the train is raised by 40cm to allow passengers to experience the landscape in all its glory.
The seat reservation fee for a 'Prestige Seat' is 49 CHF on top of the train fare of 96 CHF, making the total 144 CHF.
Includes large seating pitches and tables and of course the same panoramic windows included in the Prestige area.
The cost to reserve a seat in 1st Class is 20 CHF and is payable on top of the 96 CHF 1st class train fare, making the total for the one way journey 116 CHF. Seat reservations are optional for 1st class but highly recommended as it does sell out.
Carriages have the same panoramic windows as the first and prestige carriages. Just smaller seat pitch and therefore more people per carriage. 2nd Class Seats can be reserved for 20 CHF, payable on top of the train fare which is 59 CHF, making the total 79 CHF. Seat reservations are optional for 2nd class but highly recommended as it does sell out.
Seat reservations are required for Prestige Class seats.
Seat reservations are optional for 1st and 2nd class but highly recommended as it does sell out.

The reservation fees are as follows:
Catering is available on board and you can pre-book a breakfast or aperitif plate (Apreto-Plate Package) regardless of which class ticket you purchase. This must be pre-booked online beforehand (up to 1 day before the day of departure).
The Apreto Plate includes a selection of locally produced cheeses and cold meats and is served with brioche rolls, biscuits, butter and a wine, beer or soft drink and is priced at 29.90 CHF. I would highly recommend you order one! Alternatively, a vegetarian version is available at a price of 28.90 CHF.
The 'Breakfast Box' is 12 CHF and consists of a croissant, jam, butter, hot drink and a fresh orange juice.
In 1st Class/Prestige Class you also have the option to pre-book at a 'Caviar Package' which is priced at 89 CHF and includes Oona Caviar N°103-traditional 20g, blinis, sour cream et and a glass of Duval Leroy Brut champagne.
On board catering is also provided in the way of snacks and hot, cold, alcoholic and soft drinks which do not need to be pre-booked. The prices I found to be reasonable for Switzerland. For example a glass of quality wine or beer cost 6.90 CHF. A server will bring a menu round for you to look at in advance. Payment on board is by credit or debit card only. Alternatively, you can bring your own food and drinks on board the Golden Pass Express.
