Amtrak 1 2 Free

[Anonymous]

Hello All,

Does anyone know if Amtrak is going to run the 1 2 Free promotion this year? I am planning to travel with some friends in the second week in May 2004. I was hoping they would have run the promotion by now.

If not does anyone have any good discount suggestions (besides riding under the train [:)] )

Under Amtrak reservations, look for Rail Sale. It lists all the discounted routes featured by Amtrak. We watched this source from Jan, on, until we found great fares on the route we wanted, the Southwest Chief. The wife and I got a round trip coach fare for $260 for both of us between Galesburg IL and Flagstaff AZ. Traveled between 3 and 15 March. Once on board, we upgraded to sleeper for $100 more, plus they threw in free dining car meals. I think the Chief is now off the Rail Sale list, but there are many other routes with cheap fares. Hope this helps. John B

doggy-Check the Ebay auction site for auctions for AMTRAK tickets, which are auctioned by Amtrak. I got Chicago to Washington RT for about 1/2 the regular fare. PS I was refering to Kentucky. My son is a fan.

Wow, good deals can be had on Amtrak. [:)]

I didn't know you could upgrade to sleeper for just $100. more. That is a super deal. [:D]
