When is the station busy?
Cornavin is normally very busy between 17:00 and 18:00. If you can choose, travelling before 07:00 or after 20:00 is noticeably calmer — worth knowing if you are moving with luggage or with children.
Tickets
Ticket machines and staffed counters are located in the main hall. Tickets can also be bought through the official SBB app or website, which is usually the quickest option at busy times.
Lost property & accessibility
Lost property and assistance for travellers with reduced mobility are handled directly by SBB through their official services — contact them rather than the station shops. The P+Rail Genève Cornavin car park includes one accessible space.
