I want to buy a seat selection for the Bernina express. Do I just go onto ‘tickets.rhb.ch’ and pay for the seat selection of the panoramic view train. Its 40 CHF each person (which I’m happy to pay) but is that wheat I do in order to acquire the seat selection? When I click to buy the ticket I add that I have a global pass, but I just wanted to know if I need to do anything else?

No, you don’t need to do anything else. 

Note that you can also travel in the three first cars of the Bernina Express trains without reservation. Reservations are now also available in regional trains, but not mandatory.

However, during the peak periods, access may be restricted without reservations. Thera are new rules due to overtourism on this line.

Don’t forget to add the train to your Trip, as normal. You’ll need to show the reservation + the pass when the ticket inspector comes round.
