If that's your only itinterary, you should consider the Swiss Transfer Ticket, which allows one return trip between the Swiss border, or one of the airports, to anywhere else in Switzerland. Valid on any train, for a full day each way, so you can stop off a couple of hours on the way if you wanted to, and you could go one way on the mainline via Berne and the other way on the scenic, slower Panorama Express line via Lucerne.

I used one of these to go ZRH-Grindelwald and back a couple of months ago.

Cheaper than the flexipass too.
