Traveler Runes & Swiftness
no, rather it is you dont get the benefits of traveler while under swiftness. The effects do not stack up to 55% run speed but rather takes swiftness over travelers when the boon is active for a max of 33% run speed.

But the other buffs I get?
Some buffs stack in intensity or duration, others don’t. Check tooltips and/or your experience in-game to figure out which do what.
As a general rule, 25% swiftness effects (traveler rune 6-set bonus as well as the class-specific signets that many classes have) don’t normally stack with 33% swiftness boons.
My mesmers still value their traveler runes, since it’s the only way for them to have a passive movement speed increase that they don’t have to actively maintain all the time.

But the other buffs I get?
Yes, you get the other boons. Reason being that swiftness is capped at 33% no matter how you stack it. The only thing that you would get from skills is an increased duration of swiftness. So if you had a warrior with these runes, you run at 25% all the time, but when you use a warhorn you get 33% swiftness for 10s after which you go back to 25% speed. All the other buffs will stack as normal.
